I have a question about one of the traces: In the layout picture it appears that something resembling a via coincides with HTX1P following the second wiggle after the trace turns NE. If it is a via, what is it doing there? If not, what is it?
you've lost me, sorry. i don't know if you have access to an image editor but an arrow pointing would help - i know you're using an iphone so that might be a leetle awwkward...
Borrowing my wife's laptop I used the bundled Paint program to scratch some marks on the image from your wiggles progress message.
*grin*
What I'm referring to has been in the layout pictures for a while longer than the image I used to note it and I was curious but had bigger fish to fry.
ah! ok, i know what it is - it's the centre mark of a big pad on the layer below. nice feature (gets in the way, here) - the centre of a pad is marked with a to-scale circle that is displayed on all layers. in this case, as that's a 1206 component the circle is huuuge.... and coincidentally the same size as a VIA :)
so... can be safely ignored.
