DRC Overlapping traces

[nilanjan016]

While routing around a pad, when a trace has been routed very close to it, the DRC seems to be not working and the trace is also allowed to overlap a pad.

I have made some changes in the DRC values. The respective screenshot is also attached.

Here, a trace has been routed close to VCC Pad and when routing the VCC Pad, the Trace is also allowed to go above other pads, without any DRC error.

Please guide me through this.

Hello @nilanjan016 ,

I hope you're doing well. Can you confirm that the trace is not starting in a violation state since that will basically change the routing into ignore violators mode(aka Full manual). Additionally make sure you are not in ignore violators mode since that will basically let you do whatever you want even if it causes a violation. Let me know if either of these is true, if they are both false then we will need to get the developers involved.

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

Best Regards,

Hello @jorge_garcia ,

Could you please guide me how I would realize if the trace starts in violation mode as I have done some changes in the DRC. Secondly, I am in the Walkaround Violators mode not in the ignore violators mode, and I am still facing the same issue. 

Thank you for your help in advance.

Edit: I realized that I had overlooked the trace start violation. I changed the DRC Parameters according to the suggested parameters by JLCPCB and now the route to be not generating any DRC and no violations as such. Thank you.
