RIPUP


Function
Changes routed wires and vias into airwires.
Changes the display of polygons to "outlines".

Syntax
RIPUP;
RIPUP •..
RIPUP name..
RIPUP ! name..

The RIPUP command can be applied to a previously selected group (see GROUP command).

See also DELETE, GROUP, POLYGON, RATSNEST

The RIPUP command changes routed wires (tracks) into airwires. That can be done for:

In the latter case routed wires and vias are converted to airwires. Selecting an airwire with RIPUP converts all adjacent routed wires and vias into airwires, up to the next pad, smd or airwire.
RIPUP name..
removes the complete signal "name" (several signals may be listed, e.g. RIPUP D0 D1 D2;).
RIPUP •..
removes segments selected by the mouse click up to the next pad/smd.

RIPUP removes only signals which are connected to elements (e.g. board crop marks are not affected).

Polygons

If the RIPUP command is applied to a signal which contains a polygon the polygon will be displayed with its outlines (faster screen redraw!). After the RATSNEST command polygons are displayed in the "real mode".

The RIPUP command can also be used with groups.
