I too have an issue with the copper pour function. I am new to this PCB program but an old hand with laying out boards (the old fashioned way on more basic pcb programs).
I have watched the copper pour video several times, I wish the author had concentrated more on the sequence of steps (and setting of values) to achieve a satisfactory pour. Instead he wasted video time on totally irrelevant information about what the tracks to be shielded do....
The message "no copper area was large enough to be retained" appears when I attempt to pour. Too cryptic for me, what does that mean? I see another poster had the same problem but no solution so far was shown here.
Another little problem is that while I was trying out what the various drop down menu buttons do I somehow managed to make the top and the left hand bar menu invisible.
How do I get it back on the screen please?
Thanks,
Klaus
