I've tested it to some extent and it did seem to work, including placing via from the routing style. So at least it's probably not more broken now than it was in the last release. > >- the vendor drill plugin is not yet upgraded, will also happen in the >next few days - don't yet use it Fixed. I had to remove a smallish feature from it, which didn't really fit in the overall concept anyway: in case of routing styles, if the hole is so big that the copper ring gets too thin, the original code simply increased via copper pad diameter. I could have done something similar with padstacks, but I decided to skip this and just remove this feature: pcb-rnd shouldn't have such side effects. The vendordrill plugin, as the name suggests, should be doing nothing else but drill diameter tuning. There can be dozens of cosequences and corner cases, most of these were never detected by the code. For some reason for this one case, only in routing styles, it tried to be smart. But not anymore: catching these kind of things is up to the DRC and vendor drill is about drilled holes only. (You are most probably not affected: I don't think any modern workflow would use the vendor drill plugin) Best regards, Igor2
