neck down option on diff pairs

Is there no neck down command for diff pairs?  Or a neck down setting at least for DRC?  For example when you have a diff pair wider than the connector it is going to.

Hi @eric_engineer ,

 

I hope you're doing well. There is no neck down command as such although you can enter a width in the CLI and press enter and they will get thinner. There are also commands to shrink or widen the space between the pair. The only caveat is that you can do this within the limits of your DRC settings. For example, you can't go tighter than the minimum distance specified in the DRC, or use a width smaller than what's specified in the DRC/Netclasses.

 

Let me know if you have any questions.

 

Best Regards,

Ah okay thanks. That's a big limitation then. Other tools have a way to neck down pairs so you can attach to fine pitch components without violating DRC or netclass. It's usually an additional DRC setting like min neck width and spacing.
Thank you.
