Manual ECO in PCB Designer 16.6?

Oddion

More basic questions from a new user. How do I disconnect 3 pins from an existing net and make them their own net W/O capture? Design was imported from PADS so there is no related schematic.

Thanks!

    The method could change depending on license level as logic editing only exists in higher level licenses.

    So, as far as I know, if you don't have the logic edit license you will need to:

    1) Export the netlist (file menu)

    2) Export the libraries (file menu).  (Make sure your pad and symbol path points to the path where you exported these)

    3) Hand edit the netlist from step (1).  Fairly obvious netlist format

    4) Import the changed netlist

     

    Hope that helps!
