padstack question

By default, the system will manage stacked vias as a stack, you're right. You can change this through your user preferences, if you don't like the behavior. See the stacked_via_off environment variable, shown below with description. 

There's also the stacked_via_multi_split, which will give you an RMB option for splitting the stack. That way, when you click the stack initially, you can RMB and select which via you want to delete, for instance. Personally, I find the multi split option better for me, but you should pick which one is best for you! There is usually more than one way to do anything in Allegro!

thank u tyler

i was able to remove one padstack only by turning on the stacked_via_off option.

i tunrn on the stacked_via_multi_split option but no rmb option shows up for the multi split as shown below.

The option appears once you have activated the relevant command (move, delete, etc.). The tool can't give you a split option until it knows what you are trying to do with the split out items.

thank u tyler

i was able to split the vias.

in the meantime, since u seem to work for cadence, please let me ask u this question.

i do not get any notification from cadence anymore regarding this forum even though i turn on the "notify me when someone replies to this post" option when creating a new post. 

i used to get notifications by email from cadence but now no more.

do i need set up another options to get notifications?
