Not that I am aware of... especially if that test via has all the same 
parameters as your regular via.    But you can go and create a solder mask 
"dot" and simply place it where you want the solder mask removed...  means you 
will have to touch each and every location where you want that "feature."

Hi, 

 

Right now they are defined as same via type, is there a way to global replace 
the test via to another via type?

 

Thanks.

 

Best regards,
Eileen

You need to have different vias for that...  create the vias with the solder 
mask you need and then place the vias you need in the proper place in the 
design.

Hi,

Help will be very much appreciated; trying to figure before I release the 
Gerber.

 

I'm trying to set up the bottom solder mask in the artwork setting.

 

I have a standard via that are defined as test via on some locations.

 

How do I set up the artwork solder mask layer such that for test via, the 
solder mask is open and non test via the solder mask is close.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,
Eileen
