NEW:

• Library Editor - PADS to CAD conversion to XML FPX for custom parts has a new CAD tool interface option

FIXED / ENHANCED:

• LE Viewer:
• Fixed an issue relating to saving a Default Preference file in Setup Preferences
• Calculator:
• Fixed an issue with changing the pad shapes from Rounded Rectangle to Oblong but leaving Pin 1 Rectangle
• Fixed an issue when the component dimensions are being inserted and you move your cursor off the input cell
• Through-hole Header component family Pin Pattern dialog windows are now expandable
• PLCC component family had preferences set to Rounded Rectangle Pad Shape but pads where Rectangular in the output
• Radial Dipped with Offset Leads – silkscreen was not properly trimming around pads
• Updated some through-hole component families from Hatched Silkscreen Outlines to Full Body Outlines and added Silkscreen Auto-trim
• Fixed and issue with the TO-220 Flange Mount assembly outline was producing bad placement for the outline
• Library Editor:
• Physical Descriptions were updated to add spaces after all punctuation marks
• Updated the customer BGA, SM and TH FPX files Physical Descriptions, Case Codes and broken web-links
• You can now use keyboard Copy / Paste for moving Rows of data from one FPX file to another
• CAD Tool Output Terminal Leads:
• Fixed TO (DPAK) and Side Concave terminal leads on mechanical layer
• 3D STEP:
• SON component family had the Body Length & Width swapped for 3D STEP generation
• On a TO-220 Vertical, the “b” dimension must always be less than “L”. The lead needs to be horizontal as the lead has been built such that it can only transform in a vertical direction based on pin separation and location. Also, if there is only one row, the “D1” must be equal to “D”.  You have this as a required dimension, but somehow the part has that field blank and it was getting a value of 0, which is what was causing the real problem.
• FP Designer:
• Updated the Slotted Hole pad size calculator from 1.5 to 1.75 multiplier
• Updated the Physical Description and Manufacturer Lists
• Fixed a couple issues with the Pad Stack Manager when updating existing part pad stacks
• Silkscreen outline was not trimming on slotted holes in the CAD tool output
• Fixed Non-plated Slotted Hole keep-outs
• Fixed an issue where the Component Outline was not being sent to the CAD tool
• Default Preferences:
• Fixed an issue where the 3D Step Color assignments were flagging the same component family type
• PADS Layout:
• Changed the default alphanumeric pin assignment from Part Type to Decal
• Expedition:
• Fixed the Thermal Pad paste mask that was stacking up instead of producing a checkerboard pattern
• Altium:
• Fixed an issue with D-Shape pads
• Fixed a problem with rotation of Component Terminal drafting items
• Fixed an issue causing circular Terminal Lead outlines to be mapped to the component outline. They now properly map to the terminal outline.
• Fixed issues with D-Shaped pad translation
• Fixed an issue with Solder and Paste Mask coming over when the Mask Values were changed in Library Expert
• Fixed an issue where some component families were not translating Placement Courtyards into Altium - families affected: CAPAE, PSON, SOIC, SOJ, SOP, SOT23, SOT223, SOTFL, TO (DPAK)
• EAGLE:
• Added support for Slotted Holes
• Fixed an issue that was suppressing Solder Mask Bottom and Paste Mask Bottom pads on a Through-Hole pad stack
• PADS to CAD Translator:
• Fixed an issue the converting placement keep-outs
• Fixed an issue converting slotted holes
• Fixed an issue with converting non-plated holes and slots to be Mechanical Pins
• Fixed an issue with PADS Part Type attributes to be the original default and then pushing them into the Decal upon conversion
• General:
• PCB Tools which make arcs out of a series of vertexes will now properly generate the final vertex of the arc in all situations
• Progress Status Bars should now be updating fully when done
• Fixed some UI issues
