Hi All,

Is that possible to check, silk to solder mask overlapping in Allegro itself?

Do we have any constrains or option for that?

    There's a skill routine that does this for you. Search this forum for autosilk_utils (written by Dave Elder). This is the best method

    Steve, how do you run skill routines? We use a modified version 16.6 here, but I have not been able to get the skills to work.

    Also, I tried to search autosilk_utils in the whole forum and cannot find the skill file anywhere.

    Try http://community.cadence.com/cadence_technology_forums/f/27/t/31029 The instructions on how to run should be part of the zip file (if I remember correctly) or you can edit your allegro.ilinit file (%HOME%\pcbenv) to autoload it.
