Re: momentum-ads help

yes sir
i saved the shape into dxf format and i import it to ads layout(momentum) but the problem is :

you know that in in ads layout when you draw a shape (polygon for example ) you saw the polygon on color red (this shape present a cond) it is a layer of cond .
but me when i draw the same shape in autocad and i try to import it in layout ads the reults is just polyline (so there is not a color of a cond).
this is my problem .
if you can help me please and thanks
 

Re: momentum-ads help

Hi,

You can do as following:

Select all and then click on the right button (over the selected surface) and click the Polygon Layer and there you can change your layout to wanted layer i.e. cond layer. There are a lot of different polygons and sometimes I have noticed extra lines that are not visible until you check physical connectivity of the design. It can be done by selecting Tools-Check Connectivity-Show Physical Interconnect, there you might see some extra lines that are not part of the design. You can then select those lines and delete them.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

Erno
