Fixes & Enhancements:
  • Help:
    • Added user option to deactivate a cloud license and force Viewer mode (in “Help” dropdown menu)
  • FP Designer:
    • Adding footprints to FPX library produced a double (duplicate) Physical Description
    • When a footprint is moved from a Calculator to FP Designer, the Auto-Assembly and Silkscreen Polarity will be transferred
  • Library Editor:
    • The Physical Description for footprints with Thermal Pads now includes the Thermal Pad in the Pin Qty
    • The footprint Viewer was expanded to enlarge the footprint image on the computer screen
  • Calculator:
    • DFN 3-Pin – Pin 1 polarity dot was not following Option settings
  • Options:
    • SMD Pad Stack Rules > Thermal Tabs > Thermal Tab Paste Mask (%) – was changed from 50% to 60%
    • Terminals > Surface Mount > Flat No-Lead (Side) > Heel – was changed from 0.00 to -0.04 for all density levels
    • SMD Pad Stack Rules > Thermal Tabs > Minimum Pattern Space – could not change the value
    • Drafting > Silkscreen – Added the ability to turn off Silkscreen by setting the line width to 0.00
  • 3D STEP:
    • Chip Crystal would not generate a 3D STEP model
