Specctra Autoruter unplated through hole

[Nils Emil P. Larsen]

Hi

I'm using Cadint to design and Specctra 9.0 to auto-route.

My problem: Specctra think all holes are plated, even though they are
set as Unplated in Cadint.
I unfortunatly can not make plated holes in my PCB's.

How can I force Specctra *not* to route through holes, only through
vias?

Thank you

try telling specctra the board is single side or place keepouts either side
of pins on the top layer

Hello

Thank you very much for the quick reply.

Adding a Keepout Router-polygon around each pin/hole not accessible
for soldering will effectivly prevent Specctra from using the pins as
vias.

But that's what you asked for ... if by hole you mean any other hole not a
pin or via ... then don't add them to the ratsnest.... connect them after
specctra has finished.
