Multi Layer Board Question

Dennis H

 Hello,

I converted a 4 layer board (top,bottom, Pwr, Gnd) from Orcad Layout to Allegro 16.2.

Looks like everything came in but my power and ground layers are not connected. I looked in the display and it tells me they are there.

The rats nest is there for the power and ground layers.

 How do I go about connecting them to there respected pwr/gnd layers?

 

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, Dennis

    sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

    Thanks, for the help I was able to get my thermals to show up. 

    I do have a quick question. I am seperating ex...Signal Gnd, Power Gnd, another ground(on the same ground plane) I use the directions in the previous posts of seperating it with shapes, which worked. Is there a distance to keep between the Grounds or do I butt the shaps of the  grounds together?

     

    Thanks, Dennis
