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

Use temp group to select Vias you want to edit .In this case select Circle
as Geometry. Then enter an arbitrary number for size in Width and Height.
Autogenerate name or give any name you like.
Now you have set of vias which you can change pad stack size in one shot.

Hi Shahed,

I looked at that, but it didn't make sense how to use to replace vias.
Have
you used it for that?  If so, how?

Austin
