Version 2015.12 was just released!!

Important Notice for the V2015.12 Release (Only if you use FP Designer):

Before you install V2015.12 you need to be prepared to update all your FP Designer Parts pad stacks, see instructions here. There was a major improvement in the way FP Designer FPX pad stacks are saved and recalled. V2015.12 is not backward compatible with previous releases.
 If you have any custom “FP Designer” parts (not standard Calculator 
parts!) in your FPX data files you will need to update the pad stacks. 
You can do this yourself or contact us
 and we can assist and/or explain how you can update your FP Designer 
FPX files for use with the new .12 release. This issue has nothing to do
 with the CAD tool libraries you created, but it will cause a problem in
 the future if you don’t fix and resave them with the .12 release. 

NEW FEATURES:
FP Designer – New Draw tab:
Added feature for creating Polarity shapes and place then by coordinates
Circle

Terminal Outline defaults have been moved to Mechanical Layer 12, and 
the 3D Model will be Mechanical Layer 13 by default.
Allegro:
Made some slight mods to the scripting output to clean it up per customer feedback requests
Eagle:
Removed a redundant and unnecessary Layer 1 Polygon of the same size as the pad that was being generated for Rounded Rectangles
Turned

The colors of the user will take precedence and not be changed.
