[PCB_FORUM] Re: Logo on Top Etch layer

Create a unique subclass and put the logo on that layer (maybe
Board_geometry/Logo) and turn it on in your film control record for
layer 1 along with your top etch. You would also then need to create a
route_keepout/Top just a little bigger than the actual logo, and add
that to the symbol, so that you don't get any other etch on that layer
that will short to the logo.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Logo on Top Etch layer

Greetings everybody,

I have a company logo created as a mechanical symbol using shapes on the

top etch layer.
When I place the symbol onto my board it gives me a DRC error because 
some of the shapes are too close to each other (even though the same-net

DRC is turned off). To remove the DRC error, after I place the symbol, I

manually reassign the shape to some other valid net like GND and after 
that I reassign it back to a dummy net (back to what it was). That 
clears my DRC errors.

Does anybody know of any way to create a symbol such that the DRC error 
would not be in the first place. I just hate to go and reset the net 
assignment every time I place the symbol.
