padstack selection

masamasa
masamasa over 2 years ago

hello

i have two padstacks where small ones are placed over a large one as shown below.

how can i select a small padstack without selecting a large padstack?

whenever i select a padstack, it only picks up a large padstack.

is there a way to select a small padstack and a large padstack and de-select the large one?

    There are a couple of things to try, the first one is to use the TAB key to cycle through the objects, if that doesn't help try a right click - Reject and you should then see a list of objects you can choose.
