Hi all.
I´m designing a board in Protel DXP, in wich, I need to have some
connections with a width diferent
from the rest of the nets from wich they belong.
So, to do this, I created some From Tos, by designating the pads for my desired connections, with the From To Editor.
Then I created a class named TEST, in wich I included
all of those From Tos.
Then, I created a width rule, with a query like this:
(InFromToClass ('TEST'))
Now, the problem is that when I autoroute my board, those connections that
were suposed to have the width
that I defined in the rule, dont show any diference from the remaining nets
all over the board.
It´s obvious that this design rule is not working.
I have also tryied diferent queries, like:
(InFromToClass ('All From-Tos'))
but the result is still the same.
Also, when I run a Design Rules Check, those connections are highlighted, indicating that the program knows that these connections should had been made with a diferent width.
What am I doing wrong here?
I´ll apretiate any help.
Thanks...
