Altium Blanket Directives
« on: May 04, 2016, 07:19:50 am »
Hi,

I currently have two blanket directives on the same Altium sheet. After placing the first blanket directive I use the highlighter tool and click on the outline of the first blanket directive and it highlights all the nets contained within the first blanket directive as expected. My problem is when the second blanket directive is placed and I use the highlighter tool on the outline of the second blanket directive it highlights the nets contained by the first blanket directive. Why is it doing this?

Are the blankets in the same place...? :-DD

If you assign a Net Class to each, and push the changes into the PCB, does it follow the highlighting or does it work like it should?

I've never had a blanket not work as it should, but I've never checked what it highlights, so I'm not familiar with that.  Could be a bug. Have you checked BugCrunch?

I think it is a bug the blankets are completely separated but it seems to import the changes correctly in the PCB editor.
