Hello,

I want to know how i can include in generation of footprint the keepout layer I have on some footprints?

I use Librairies Expert Pro Version 2015.17 for OrCAD PCB 16.6.

I have make many tries with a personal footprint created with the FP Designer but I don't see any keep out zone in OrCAD.

Many thanks in advance for any help.

Benoit

V2015.19 has user defined keep-outs with lots of options. It also has automatic NO_PROBE keep-outs in the CAD tool interface GUI.

However, you cannot use legacy keep-outs from Allegro due to the .dra file is binary and we have no way to read it.
