--0000000000000aefe7058d52a278 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Rob, are you running a current version of pcb? Both of these methods should work in the latest release. Make sure that you have the layer with the plane you want to connect to selected when you execute the command. Since there could be multiple planes on different layers, this is how you tell pcb which one you want it to connect the pin to with a thermal. When you're shift clicking with the thermal tool, if you release shift and click again it will turn the thermal off, disconnecting it from the plane. I suspect that's what happened to you. --Chad On Tue, Jul 9, 2019 at 6:24 PM Rob Butts (r DOT butts2 AT gmail DOT com) [via geda-user AT delorie DOT com] <geda-user AT delorie DOT com> wrote: > I did "x" "+" and now when I click on the thermal then the pin I don't > have any connection from the pin to the plane. > > On Tue, Jul 9, 2019 at 5:28 PM Bert Timmerman (bert DOT timmerman AT xs4all DOT nl) > [via geda-user AT delorie DOT com] <geda-user AT delorie DOT com> wrote: > >> Rob Butts (r DOT butts2 AT gmail DOT com) [via geda-user AT delorie DOT com] wrote: >> > This is a very basic question.
