I am sorry but I don't understand your problem. I have no problem with deleting vias even when no etch is turned on. I don't even know of a switch that will accomplish that. The only thing that affects that is the find filter being set to not touch vias. Have you loaded all of the sr's? How about going to 15.1? 15 did have some problems. I never even loaded it up, I went straight from 14.2 to 15.1. Except for the find filter I cannot even begin to guess what the problem is.
Good luck, Kevin McCowan Sr. PCB Designer TSI Telsys
Well, I have been on 15 for about 2 weeks now. I am not impressed.
The latest problem: What hidden switch do I have to throw to allow me to delete a via on one layer when it's connected on another without turning that (or those) other layer(s) on? I KNOW it's connected, let me delete the durn thing if I want without having to turn 20 layers on to do it...
I do wish they would redesign the tool for designers instead of worrying so much about the occasional users who need to be protected from themselves. The amount of time I have to waste trying to circumvent "features" that are preventing me from doing my job quickly and efficiently doubles with each point release :)
