    A fillet is a shape.

    thank u, dave.

    i was able to catch the fillet by turning all objects on on the find filter.

     

    actually this fillet distance violates the minimum cline spacing on the constraint manager.

     

    is there a way to set up the minimum distance to fillets so that it gets an error on drc?

    You can adjust offset values in Route-> Teardrop/Tapered Trace -> Parameters  "Fillet and Tapered Trace" window,

    You can tweak around Max Offset value in Fillet Options section.

    thank u for your reply.

     

    how can i catch drc spacing violations between fillets and other objects without adjusting the fillet size?

     

    if i am deadling with my design, i can adjust the fillet size.

     

    but i have to deal with many designs which are done by our customers, so i would like to catch the drc fillet spacing violation on their designs.

     

    regards

    hello vvrd

     

    thank u for ur reply.

     

    it did not work.

     

    i set the same net spacing as 2um on the constraint manager.

     

    the spacing between a fillet and a cline is 1.92um.

    but it gives me no error even if i turn on the "eneble line based chack for fillet" on the anaysis mode and update the drc.

     

    regards
