Re: Altium shorcuts

Hugo,
I don't use AD/DXP but I believe what you are mentioning is the trace
"neckdown" feature and I believe it only works for pad/land entries. I don't
belive it works on necking down a trace between pads. Can't you set several
preferred trace widths in AD/DXP (not sure which version) and then switch
them with some shortcut keys?

Sincerely,
Brad Velander

Isn't there a shortcut in Altium that increases/decreases the trackwidth?

It could be usefull when routing between pads on an IC
