Can I place a component overhanging the board outline?

I want to be able to take a multi-pin connector and place it on the PCB so that part of the housing of the connector hangs over the board edge.  The through-holes for the connector pins are still inside the board outline by more than the DRC clearance value.  Is this possible?  I don't see any information in the tutorial or the forums.

You can do this. For example: [https://easyeda\.com/example/Tesseract\_Guitar\_Practice\_Amp\-MjP71jBni](https://easyeda.com/example/Tesseract_Guitar_Practice_Amp-MjP71jBni)

I studied that design but I could not tell how the overhanging components were made to not generate DRC errors.  That design does have 60+ DRC errors for clearance on capacitor leads but none on the components.  I am trying to place a right angle JST-XH connector over the board edge.  If I do that I get 2 DRC violations: Track Width: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/M1ZhCyuxpIBAbdmnS0kYNCHhOm3n6MTjUI5EhEwI.png) Clearance: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/7kBiRNDROUIwzMYyVkp9Dpaoeuy2kq7cKVFBJcel.png) I noticed in the example design that the designer disabled the "Check Object to Board Outline" feature in the DRC.  I did that but it did not help.  Here are my DRC settings: ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/nkTdm5n44l6pzS62qkSJs972ihEYDc8pld1cThfJ.png) Is it possible to disable all DRC checks for a specific component? Thanks for the help.
