How to set up a rule for SMD-to-THT clearance?

My supplier said that he needs at least 2,5mm clearance between SMD and THT pads, so I've tried to set up such a DRC rule, but the only thing I could find was clearence betweet smd-to-smd and tht-to-tht.

I need to set up that rule for same and different signals.

Please do not tell me that I could run a specific ULP from some sketchy website.

Hello @lars.jepkens,

 

I hope you're doing well. We do not have an smd-tht for different signals but we have one for same signals so that one you can set in the clearance tab.

 

In that same tab you'll find the pad-pad clearance which use the same value for both smd-smd and tht-tht. If your manufacturer gave you different values for smd-smd and tht-tht then use the stricter of the two for both(the larger of the two). 

 

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

 

Best Regards,
