Power and Ground Plane

mmogbel , 09-14-2022, 06:04 AM
Hello

I am not facing any problem with adding a plane layer into my PCB through Layer Stack Manager. But my problem is when I trying to assign a plane layer to a Net.

every one explain it like it is only to double click on the plane layer on PCB editor, but I do it a lot and nothing appear.

does there any different way to assign a plane layer to a Net ?


Thank you

Make sure that the selection filter has "other" enabled (properties panel)

Thank you for your reply.

I am using 22.4.2 version, and I select "Other" on filtring but also i have the same problem.

Now, if you double click on the board region, you should get the question to connect the plane to a net.
Oh, and make sure that the plane layer is active, possible use the single layer mode just to make sure.

If it still does not work then I am out of ideas. I do not work with planes myself, so I have very little experience with it.
