No, I just routed a trace (inside the shape) from a pin to the vias to force it...Then just export / import to 0,0.
Anyone know how to search for these "floating" vias? Danging via does not work. Would like to locate any instances I may have missed.
Thanks, Mark cadman10@xxxxxxxxxxx wrote:
Hello Mark,Normaly this happens becouse when the vias do not have a net association they inherit the net name of the first shape they find,B Have you tried to disable the dynamic shapes on the board first , then import your subdrawing, then enable the dynamic shapes and force your imported shape to update firstgood luck cadman On Jul 27, 2009, *Mark Salberg* <msalberg@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Not quite that easy Jean, Actually stitching to many different power supplies on 8 different layers. Just want to keep the import the same as the export. Importing clip all at once by 0,0 origin.

Then the unconnected vias will get associated with GND, and then you can move the other planes back on the board. _ _ _ _Jean Bratton_ _Senior PCB Designer_ _Freedom CAD Services, Inc._ _Office: 603-864-1349_ _Email: jean.bratton@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx _Visit us at http://www.freedomcad.com_ _ _ _ _ _-----Origi nal Message----- From: icu-pcb-forum-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:icu-pcb-forum-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Mark Salberg Sent: Monday, July 27, 2009 9:04 AM To: Cadence User Group Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Allegro Sub drawing / Via stitch problem_ _ _ _Hello all,_ _When Exporting a Sub-Drawing I found that any vias in a shape used for _ _stitching...connected to a shape, but has no traces to a pin...looses _ _connectivity and sometimes connect to a different plane after import _ _sub-drawing._ _The only way I have found to fix it is to ALSO route a t race from a pin _ _to the via to force the connection._ _ _ _Is there a way to locate any occurrences of this prior to exporting a _ _Sub-Drawing?_ _ _ _Thought maybe dangling wire reporting as dangling via...but a Dangling _ _via is defined a a via with only one connection from a pin.
