Hi to all, I updated to PCBL 2022.04 and when I created a footprint for a small transistor (Vishay-SI1012CR) I got the next message: - Pads were trimmed to clear the body. - Gang Mask Applied I understood the message because the height A1(the min distance from the body to the pcb) was 0.0 I need help with the second message because I do not understand it... why? I tried to attach a pic of it... uploads/15739/Captura1_2022-03-22_06-58-16.PNG" rel="nofollow - uploads/15739/Captura1_2022-03-22_06-58-16.PNG Thanks for you time and help. Regards, dramos

Gang Mask is when you violate the minimum solder web rule. You can change this in "File > Options > SMD Pad Stack Rules > Minimum Gang Solder Mask Web > 0.075". By changing this value to 0.00 you turn off the feature. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |

Hi Tom, Firstly thanks for your fast answer.  But I think that I haven't violate any rule.... uploads/15739/Captura2_2022-03-22_09-13-54.PNG" rel="nofollow - uploads/15739/Captura2_2022-03-22_09-13-54.PNG Anyway thanks for your time and help Best regards, dramos |

You are correct. The error message should not say "Gang Mask Applied". This is a bug, and we'll fix it in the next V2022.05 pre-release. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |

Dear Jeff, Sorry for the late reply, I am writing from Spain..... The data I used was taken from https://www.vishay.com/docs/67519/si1012cr.pdf" rel="nofollow - here I hope you used the same for analysis. Thanks and regards. dramos |
