About PolyRegion Clerance Violation In Altium 19

cool thanks for sharing!

So I found it.
There is an advanced mode in the rules dialog and you can set up the clearance about the fills without any problem.
So I set it up according to the picture below and NO MORE VIOLATION !

robertferanec Robert, I tried something I thought it would run but it doesn't: I have the square pad (21) in the middle and for the sides I used fills.
Same result: violation between Fill and Pad.
I do not see the solution.

mulfycrowh is not a custom shaped pad something what you are looking for? https://www.altium.com/documentation...ad+Shapes))_AD

In some cases I have created exceptions in the rules for some footprints.. If I can't get them right within the scope of the rule.. It is a trade off, but keeps you sane...

[Paul van Avesaath]

Either copper to copper or copper to smd pad..
To verify this is your rule change all values to 5 and see if it still triggers

[mulfycrowh]

Here is the dialog I get when clicking on the blue word clearance.
Sorry but I don't see the rule that triggers the violation.
The object in conflict with the pad is not a pad. This is a region.
Where is the rule ? It is set to 10mil.
Thank you.

[Paul van Avesaath]

If you click on the blue word clearance, it should take you to the rule that is triggering! So click it and change the value and see what happens..

[mulfycrowh]

Could you please tell me where I can find the settings for the clearance between a region and a pad ?

[mulfycrowh]

Thanks for reply.
Here are the details of the violation.
It is between the solid region I added on top and bottom of the EP (Pad 21) and a pad.
The question was: where can I find in the rules the clearance between a solid region and a pad ?

[Paul van Avesaath]

if your right click and look at the violations, you should be able to see which rule is triggering this error.. also could it be that you might have a netname issue doing it like this? (i mean with the pads and the EP connected to each other)

[mulfycrowh]

As already explained, the violation is between the solid region and the pads.

[mairomaster]

Be more specific please. On your later screenshot I can't see any violations. Are you getting clearance, short circuit or what? Between what and what?

[mulfycrowh]

Is there anybody to answer please ?

[mulfycrowh]

I removed all the regions and I do not have any more violation.
The trouble is that, according to the datasheet, the exposed pad should be like the attached footprint.
If I add this two areas on left and sight sides (as regions), I have violations.
How could I manage this ?
Thanks.
