Component to Board error

Winston James

United States

I started a PCB layout with a red outline for a copper pour area...and no DRC errors....I generate gerber files and plot menu says missing board outline....So i used the menu to add a rectangular board but now after a DRC check, i get plenty component to board errors...I used the ruler to measure some of the distance b/t the edge components and the green board outline, and it's within the spacing distance I set in the technology file settings under Spacings tab....why am I getting the error still?

You will also get this error if you have components on the outside of the board that have not been placed - zoom out and see if you have anything there.
