Well, if we had part to part rulesets you could certainly do this. You would just apply a rule based on how tall a component is. 2 short comps=close, 2 tall or a short and tall= far. Let's see how they implement it in 15.5 and then we will be able to see all of the ways they did it wrong. Or not. Kevin McCowan
again, simple rules for day to day needs.

Hi Ed,
Personally, I like the idea of DFA checks but my angle is in the third
dimension. I'd like to be able to set up not only the types you've
outlined, but rules for minimum spacing based on package height. Our CM
needs more space between a 200mil high connector and an 0603 cap than
two 0603 caps side by side.
Any thoughts on creating rule sets based on height?
Thanks,
Andrew
