I route all my boards by hand, because, while Protel has a router that is better than the one I used to use, it still does some really dumb things. It's just easier for me to place parts and route by hand.
I do, however, always use the "interactive routing" option as it saves hours of naming traces.

When I place a resistor I see 3 parameters for that part: R?, res, 1K How do I globally turn off the 'res' parameter so that when I place a part I only see R? and 1K 2. I was wondering what general strategies you guys and gals use to route your boards. Do you manually route important stuff and let the autorouter take care of the rest? ANY advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks Randy Knutson MSU mankato Electrical Engineering.
