Thanks!

  Hey Austin,



  I sent it a week ago, on the 14th.



  If there is a skill code that works with more than a window (temp group
picks), I'd go with that.

  Hi Gary,



  Not if you sent it today.  If you sent it to me some time ago, I can check
my inbox and a few other eMail folders for it...



  Thanks!

    Austin,



    Did you get the "derived_padstack.doc" word doc that I sent you? It's a
little involved, but will get you where you want to go.

    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
