Version 2021.04 was just released!!

Updates & Bugs Fixed:
Tools > Options:
Terminals > Rectangular End Cap > Courtyard Excess for Pad was not applying the excess to the sides.
Console > Mil Units – major upgrade to everything relating to building footprints in Mil Units.
De-selecting “Add origin crosshair to footprint” removes the courtyard instead of the crosshair.
De-selecting “Add origin target to footprint” removes the crosshair instead of the target.
Pad Stack Rules Options – The SMD Corner Rounding Radius Size % was not translating over to the calculator.
FP Designer:
Fixed an issue for creating Slotted Holes. The pad size did not reflect the Options.
Fixed an issue for Drafting Line lengths. The length value was not reflective in the drawn line.
Fixed an issue when selecting Corner Radius in the pad stack Manager, the default location was blank.
After selecting Designer and then selecting any other icon button threw an unhandled exception error.
When creating a new pad stack in the Pad Stack Designer, the Pad Stack Manager had value fields that were not supposed to be there.
Legend issue fixed – when the footprint is too small for an accurate Legend Outline, FP Designer auto-generates a fake legend outline around the pads.
Calculators:
Tabbing through the dimension cells was not working properly.
Naming Convention used the Nominal Package Height rather than the maximum height.
PSON component family was completely disabled.
Library Editor:
Rename a footprint in the library editor Footprint Name cell, the CAD tool output inserted the original name in the CAD tool translator.
Batch Build does not produce the Density Level Suffix in the Footprint Name L, N or M.
