Problem 1: Your hole size is incorrectly specified. You need to have
(85.0 40.0) instead of 85.0 x 40.0.
Problem 2: You need to enter ALL the text, not just the tolerance
The modified line would look line ((85.0 40.0) "Plated" "85.0 X 40.0 +/-
4 MIL") or whatever. This is a SKILL thing, parentheses inside
parenthesis.
Make sure you have a user field specified in your column definitions, we
use
(("Figure" "FIGURE" 6)
("Holesize" "BIT DIA" 8)
("User" "FINISHED HOLE" 24 "Left")
("Quantity" "QTY" 6 "Right"))

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] default-x.dlt file snafu
Hey guys,
Anyone out there modify their drill chart file ("default-mil.dlt" for
mils)?
I have a "CustomData" section where the hole size, Plated or Non-plated
and the tolerance is listed.
With Allegro now defining slots, I can't figure out how to get a slot
tolerance to show up in the drill chart.
Here's the line in the "CustomData" section for the slot that's not
working correctly:
(85.0 x 40.0 "Plated" "+/- 4.0")
The size and the word "Plated" shows up in the drill chart, but not the
tolerance (+/- 4.0).
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Gary
