2021.10 was just released!!

Updates & Bugs Fixed:
Calculator Component Families:
BGA – when changing the paste mask reduction, the calculator produced the incorrect result.
Quad and Grid Array packages – when entering the D & E pin qty the total was an inaccurate value until the Calculate button was selected.
SON – using the mfr. recommended pattern was causing pads to react differently under certain dimensions.
SOD – moving the Calculator SOD to FP Designer caused several missing cell data information.
All component families with Thermal Tabs – Tabs on Assembly produced 2 outlines.
All SMD component families – if the mfr. recommended pattern is being used it should remove the Density Level from the footprint name.
All PTH component families – there is only one Density Level for through-hole footprints and the footprint name should not indicate “Nominal Density”
