How put tracks on a footprint

jpgendner All Messages By This Member #24398 开云体育 Hello, ??? I like to create footprints that allow different types of package to be used for a component. See picture. ??? There is no problem to have some pads with same pad number. I also found that it is possible to add copper between pads, but when used there a re CRC errors because this copper is not on the same net as the pads. ??? Is there a way to do what I want ? I hope I am understandable. ??? Thank you for the list. ??? Regards, ??? Jean-Paul, F5BU **** Jean-Paul Gendner Site : Capture d’écran 2025-04-10 121851.jpg

In my experience, you'll probably need to try different variations on this theme in order to get what you want.

It is possible to create an extra pad with soldermask and then to modify the shape, however, in this cas a big pad numer appears. ??? Regards, ??? Jean-Paul, F5BU --------------- ???

Robert All Messages By This Member #24402 Try creating the big pad with no solder mask, and then either adding the solder mask manually, or adding small conventional pads directly over the parts that are solderable, if that makes sense.

jpgendner All Messages By This Member #24403 开云体育 Thanks for the advice Robert, ??? I've wanted to try this solution before, but haven't found a way in the footprint editor to add a solder mask without adding copper, because writting in the solder mask remove the mask, so, the only way I found is to add a pad! And, if you have to add the mask in the PCB editor, it's more easier to put the tracks there, what I do currently. ??? It would be great if the footprint editor allowed to assign pad to copper, or better to add tracks. ??? Regards, ???
