via (padstack) not showing

hello

 

i have updated a symbol but padstacks are not showing.

 

i have placed the padstack into the via list as shown below.

 

a padstack named die_pad has the following stackup:

 

For this padstack, nothing is showing on hi (dielectric) and hl (conductive) layers

the padstack is part of the symbol as a pin so the dra file has the padstack which r showing onthe hi and hl layers on the dra file.

 

how can i make the padstack show on the board file?

 

regards

masa

    hello

     

    i have reconstructed the symbol several times and it now shows padstacks.

     

    i wish i could simply update the symbols without any problems.

     

    regards
