Wouldn't it make more sense for the default option settings in ODB++ Inside to 
match the film settings in the design? I know that the translator exports and 
reads the films already so how much of a stretch would it be?

Thanks for the reply Daniel. It turns out I just wasn't seeing the "Suppress 
unconnected pads" check box in the ODB++ Inside form. I do have some Net_Short 
properties on pins and vias, so I'll check that area real good.

Thanks again.

Gary

Are they on components that have the "net-short" property? There is a bug on 
that. Latest hotfix on rel 16.2 and 16.3 fixes it I believe. I had that issue.

Hey Guys,

I just noticed that when I run ODB++, then look at it in the VUV, I get inner 
pads where there are no connections, even though I have my inner films set up 
to "Suppress unconnected pads".

Has anyone seen this behavior? Am I not setting up ODB++ Inside correctly?

Thanks for any help?
