Drill hole merging is not get updated in the drill chart?

Hi..

I want to produce the drill chart for the my design. But when i am try to create the drill chart, the drill sizes are not in the same size. So that i have  only option i had tried is to locate the pad that uses the odd size drill and use Tools - Padsatck - Modify Design Padstack and then edit the pad to change the drill size. Once modified use File - Update to design and exit and the drill diameter is changed. In the Customization section th symbol X & Y are been give the same size of symbol.

After specifying the symbol, i done the merge option that to merge symbols. But that option also not yet get updated in the drill chart. So i attached the file that to specify the error what i had done.

Thanks & Regards
Dhamodharan

     The drill size is still different (0.8 and 0.864) so you can't merge them into one entry. Locate the all the pads that have the 0.864 drill size and adjust to suit, then once updated in in the design match all the entries for Symbol size, character etc then merge.

    Thank You steve. but still me facing the problem. When i try to update the drill sizes from design pad stack, in the design it get updated. When i am try to merge the symbols, that mean time edited symbol pad stack sizes are not get updated in the drill customization.

    What i had done is Instantly i had edited the symbol pad stack and get update to design option. Then i opened the drill customization window to merge, but that time the edited symbol sizes are not updated in my design.

    The drill size of (0.8) to (1) the size is get  varied in the design . It had been get edited in the design, But when i am try to merge it in the drill customization, that time it get error that to resolve (RED COLOR). But the Symbol padstack size and symbols are get updated in board file.


    Thanks & regards
