Choose via drill size smaller than 0.2mm

jason_frauchigerWC7YH — Wed, 03 May 2023 13:55:18 GMT

I want to set the via drill size to 0.15 mm because larger vias don't fit between my components. The smallest via drill size available to chose for me is 0.2 as seen in the screenshot below. In the "Layer Stack Manager" I have also selected a minimum size of 0.15 mm as seen in the next screenshot. Where can I change the size of this parameter?

You can just click on the box and type whatever you want instead of using one of the suggestions in the drop down. Notice that when you click on the text a cursor appears in the box? Just type whatever drill size you want. Do not click on the arrow pointing down, just click where the actual text is.

Thanks for your help. Is there also a way to add predefined sizes, so that I don't have to type it in manually every time i want to use a via of this size?

Hi,

yes you can type into the command line this command

set drill_menu n1 n2 n3 n4

where n1 n2 etc are your values for the menu.

for example

results in

but instead of typing it every time put that command in a .scr file and just run the script at the beginning of your session.

Hi @jason_frauchigerWC7YH ,

Just to add to @mtl_asm 's comment. You can go into Preferences > Electronics > Defaults and set up the defaults for the menus there.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,
