[PCB_FORUM] Re: Is there any way to replace more than one via, but not all of them?

Austin,

There is a piece of skill code available:

replace_update_via.il

Which will replace vias by window.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Is there any way to replace more than one via, but
not all of them?

Hi,

I want to replace more than one and less than all vias.  In
tools/replace, if I use padstack replace, I can select a via, and there
is a checkbox for single instance, or if not checked, it replaces them
all.  When in single instance mode, I can't do multiple selections (not
surprising, after all, it is called "single instance").  Is there a way
to use the selection box to select a group of vias, or some other way of
selecting multiple vias and changing them to a different via padstack?

15.7.

..and I've gotten bitten by not checking single instance mode, and it
changes all the instances of that via...and there is no undo!  So, I
have learned to save often when replacing vias...

Regards,

Austin
