  • Karthik,

    The fact that vias are very different between IC51 and IC61 is a very good example of why the forum guidelines suggest that you mention the version you're using - that way you can get focussed answers.

    There is a lot of discussion about this (changing vias) in this thread. I've pointed you to a post in the middle, which does talk a bit about doing something similar and I mentioned that there's not a clean way to remaster an existing via. You're OK changing the parameters of the via (read the whole thread), but if you want to change from one via to another, you have to delete it and then recreate it using dbCreateVia. You could capture the important parameters of the existing via and then use those for the new (different) via that you're creating. That's (sort of) covered in the thread.

    You may also want to also contact customer support so that you can also request a cleaner way to remaster a via.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
