Unroute signals

Converts copper signals to unrouted signals, ready for re-routing.

  1. On the PCB Design toolbar, click Unroute Ripup icon.
  2. In the Unroute dialog, select the type of unroute operation to run.
    • Object, default, converts a routed segment to an unrouted signal, deletes a via, and a polygon becomes an outline.
    • Connection, converts all copper connected to the selected segment to an unrouted signal, including those on other layers.
    • Connection Same Layer, converts the selected segment to an unrouted signal.
    • Signal, converts all segments with the same name as the selected segment to unrouted signals. This can include multiple branching traces.
    • Between components, converts the shared segments between two components into unrouted signals.
    • From to, converts the segments, shared between two connected terminals of any kind, into unrouted signals.
  3. Click the trace, via, or devices on which to run the operation.
