Re: Ignore courtyard DRC and library update


 

Hi,

Courtyard is board side specific. So if you place anything to the other side, it will generate no error.

The problem here is that there are components under each other on the same side.

Yes,

It would be nice if KiCAD could be set to ignore DRC errors for THT parts on the opposite side.
With RF boards the connectors (thru hole) are routinely mounted behind the circuit (SMD) to get short traces.

To avoid different keepout for both sides only the thru-hole pads have to be avoided.
This also happens with parts like PCB pots.
We have to be aware though it needs a bit of room to "swing the iron" and not put SMD parts hard up against THT pads.
