What is a latch mode in Pulsonix PCB Design tool?
Latch mode is a mode of operation that allows a tool to be pre-selected (latched) and applied to many
items until it is toggled off (unlatched). For example, the Rotate mode can be latched down and
rotations applied to many components in the design in turn.
To exit latch mode, you can either select the option again to unlatch it, or press the Esc key on the
keyboard to return to Select mode. You can also use the Cancel option from the context menu after
right clicking the mouse.

What is a Via, Micro via, buried via and blind via in PCB design?
Via
In PCB Design a via made an electrical connection between two or more layers. Its visible from both side of PCB.
Yes, its more like a Pad which has a drill hole. But drill dia for Via is smaller as compare to Pad. And that is the only part which distinguish it form Pad.
Blind via
It's start from one of the surface to any of inner layer.Burried Via
It's via that is between inner layers. burried via is not accessable from top or bottom layer.Microvia
These are the vias with narrow drill hole. usually these vias are directly present in component pads.
