Change cline width while routing

archive
archive over 15 years ago

 Hello Members,

 I would like to know if there is a simple way to change the cline width while routing. 

I am using Allegro PCB design L 16.3.

According to my knowledge, the ways to change the width is to go to the option menu or to use the right click menu.

As both options are time consuming, I would prefer to change the width by using a funckey that will increase/decrease the width according to predefined data.

Would much appreciate your help in this matter.

Miki.

    Thanks Craig!

    We use a wide variety of line here for logic/digital, power, etc. The list would be very long. Also, our sustaining engineer department still works with some boards designed in mils, which obviously isn't compatible with boards in mm.

    Since the DB knows the MRU list of line widths, it would be very nice to tap into the last while scrolling the mouse wheel.

    I did find that "button wheel_up FORM mini acon_line_width Constrain" works, but that's the only predefined line width which is compatible across all potential board designs.
