Electronic – EAGLE PCB How to set drill clearance

clearanceeaglepcbrouting

I have designed an land pattern for a micro USB connector. The connector have 2 x 0.9mm drill holes under it.

The problem is the clearance distance around these holes being to big and overlaps the soldering pads for the very same connector.

These holes are just plain holes, I don't need the same clearance rules as for traces. Is there a way to override the automatic clearance and set them manually?

As you can see, the hole clearance overlaps the pad on the top layer (red).

Yes, this is done in the DRC settings. One of the parameters sets how far traces must be from board edges, which includes the edges of unconnected holes. I don't remember the exact setting name, but run "drc", look thru the settings, and you should be able to spot it.

You are saying you looked in the DRC but didn't find it. It's actually quite obvious and one of only two setting under the "Distance" tab:
