[PCB_FORUM] Re: dynamic shapes (planes) not showing holes correctly?

Do you happen to have two shapes in that location ?

  Hi Austin,

If your using 
  15.7 try the following:

In your Global Shape Parameters form set the 
  "Thru pin" DRC  Oversize value to 0.01.

Then Update to 
  Smooth.
*or* ix 0 the shape to regenerate it.

Check the following 
  PDF document "Best Practices: Working with 
  Shapes"

  Hi 
  Dennis,
   
  I 
  have done all three, to no avail.  I'm off maintenance, so I don't 
  believe I can report this to them, unfortunately.

  Austin

    Hi 
    Austin,
     
    I see you found one 
    of t he weak points in Cadence – and a pain in the butt.  Cadence has 
    always had problems with shapes.
     
    Sometimes going to 
    smooth doesn’t even work to update the shape, when you need to update DRC 
    before performing a smooth.
     
    
      Go to 
      Tools/Update DRC 
     
    
      Go To 
      Setup/Drawing Options/Status/ pick smooth box – pick update to Smooth 
then 
      OK – see if that fixes it, if that doesn’t fix it go to # 3. 
      
     
     
    
      Are you showing 
      us a negative plane?  If so go to Setup/Drawing Options/Display/ and 
      turn on filled pads, and see if that fixes it. 
                
    Also report this to Cadence – the more they hear about plane issues they 
    might give the planes more attention.
     
    Good 
    luck

      Hi,
      
       
      
      > But, when I 
      move this component off the board, then back on, the holes come through 
      correctly.
      
       
      
      Only until I 
      click "done"...then it goes back to not showing.
