Hi ! 1 - About vias. It not new, I remember it from v14.2 when I place via and any plane exist it immediately connect to his net. And when exist many ground vias and I delete ground plane they will be or connected to other plane or unconnected. Because this problem I create SKILL "ASSIGN_NET" and now you can with 2 clicks connect all vias that you need ( by window or group ) to net that you need. On http://skill.freespaces.com/ <http://skill.freespaces.com/> see how ASSIGN_NET on Video Demo's.

If I have a standalone via, it is assigned a ground net charateristic. I like to group vias when working with power distribution but it doesn't do me any good when all the standalone vias are ground. 2. Very elementary, but I can't add vias to my via list. I can physically add them to the chart but they don't show up in the design drop down. What happened? Regards, Ron Scott C.I.D.
