Etch Shape only Keepout?

LouShay

Is there a keepout (or other method) that allows clines and vias in the area, but does not allow etch shapes? The goal is a permanent etch shape keepout, so shape voids are not the solution.  Thanks for any help you can provide. -lou

    So for any keepout shape you can add properties (Edit - Object Properties) for via_allowed and routes_allowed which will allow what you need but you can also add specific nets defined in an exception group. Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihOtQv-fBLE&t=65s

    Great. Thanks very much Steve! Just the solution I was looking for. In typical Cadence fashion it’s archaic and cumbersome, but effective.
