Hi friends,

Some of connectors has one or two plastic pitch pin which has not any eletrical property. it should be as NON-PLATED HOLE in PCB. But I can not find how to implement this at library builder.

All the PINS export by Library builder seems as PLATED PIN. Any method to achieve this?

    Currently the only option you have is to edit the padstack once it's in PCB Editor and change it from a PTH type hole to a Mechanical one then set it as Non-plated. Cadence have plans to address this at the next release of Library builder though.
