Version 2014.04 was just released!!

NEW:
  • FP Designer:
    • Now auto-generates the Physical Description
  • User Preferences:
    • Added new button to restore User Preference default values
  • General:
    • Improved object selection.  No longer have to change layer to the same as the object to be selected.
    • Improved selected object highlighting
    • If multiple objects get selected (possible if objects are stacked) use F7 key to loop thru selected objects
    • The keyboard key “Enter” now tabs between cells in every Dialog Window and acts as an Save & Close when cursor is in last cell
  • GUI Toolbars:
    • Added “Function Text” below the toolbar icons
    • Added a new toolbar button for PADS to CAD


FIXED / ENHANCED:
  • Allegro/OrCAD PCB:
    • Issue that was causing the Library Name to be disabled when using multipart mode and you changed to that translator from a separate translator
    • Issue that would crash the program if pins were completely removed from the part, rather than simply hidden
    • Problem that was preventing donut shapes from converting properly
  • PADS:
    • Turning “Map Alphanumeric Pins” off when generating a p/d pair will now properly send any alphanumeric pins to the Part Decal
    • Hidden or Deleted pins now import properly
  • CR-5000:
    • Polarity Marker Dots are now properly handled, and the output has been cleaned up
  • FP Designer:
    • Adjusted the size limits for small Die Patterns getting error message “Design Limits Exceeded”
    • Chamfered and rounded corner pad shapes are now back
  • New PADS Translator / Filter:
    • Issues found in importing files generated from older versions of the PADS V2004
  • General:
    • Any Placeholder Pins at the end of a pin list will now be clipped
