Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Re: gloss 45's to arcs on the diff-pairs
I'm new to this forum. What software pkg. are you using ? I use PADS 5.01 and PCAD2002 and I don't recognize the term "gloss".
Thanks,
Sandy

I seem to recall that gloss wouldn't touch nets having certain types of constraints. I believe it was any kind of delay (length) controls.
This is a bit crude, but you could make a copy of the .brd file and in the copy, strip any delay constraints, run gloss, then clip the diff pair routes into the constrained .brd file. You might find you have to delete any diff pair uncoupled length and phase tolerance info also.
No guarantees on this as I have not glossed routes since v14.

Bill

I have been unable to get the gloss routine to change the 45's to arcs on the diff-pairs. It works on the non-diff-pair connections. Anybody know the secret?
