[PCB_FORUM] Re: Constraint Region in 16.01

That was it!  I had the power nets assigned a physical CSet but I didn't
have them in a Net Class group.  The simple things...
 
Thank You.

Check weather the nets ( PWR & GND ) are in the net class PWR_GND . I mean
that the nets should be a member of the Net class then this will work.

I've got the shape assigned and works as far as getting the 4.75mil traces
to route at 4mils.  But this is making the PWR_GND route at 4mils also.
That's why I thought by adding the Region-Class PWR_GND and assigning the
referenced Cset of PWR_GND I'd get a 20mil trace.
This is what the Display constraints window is showing:

Is the Region shape assigned to the Region Constraint Object?
 
In the PCB Editor, select the Region shape with the shape select command
then check the options panel field "Assign to Region" for the Region
constraint object. 
 
One other tip - use the Display - Constraint command to determine how
Allegro resolves physical and spacing constraints
 
1 pick on the cline for physical info; window around 2 clines for spacing

I am trying to set a physical rule that allows a 4mil trace in a BGA region,
but still forces a 20mil trace on all power nets.  I've got physical
constraints set up for BGA=4mils and PWR_GND=20mils.  This still wants to
route at mils.  What am I doing wrong?
