Same Net Spacing: Shape to Shape

Fredda
Fredda over 5 years ago

I have a big shape covering the entire board and a small shape inside. Both shapes belong to the same net. The same net spacing is turned on in the Analysis Mode dialog and the Enable DRC By-Layer is set to TRUE, but the setting doesn't take effect. The shape-to-shape same net spacing is set to 0.2 mm. This example is, by the way, just for testing the constraint. Is there an additional setting that I have missed?

I would have expected this:

    Ok, I think I've found a setting to deal with this.

    Edit Property: Void_Same_Net = True

    But why isn't it working without this property edit?

    Edit:Seems reasonable when thinking about it. I don't want a DRC error as soon as same net objects overlap...
