I'm using the 2015.09 version of Library Expert Lite.
Where is the wrench/build button? Am I missing something?
I thought The "Lite" tool was able to output several CAD formats.

V2015.09 has a "Build Part" icon in the Viewer Toolbar. It's the last button.
 
The Library Expert Lite comes with 21 CAD tool interfaces and every version of every CAD tool.

Hi Tom, Thanks for the quick response.
My toolbar is missing the "build" button. ....Pad Stacks, Print are the last 2 buttons to the right.
Maybe I should download the "Lite" version again?

Here it is - I think you might have installed the Library Expert Viewer.

I think you are right Smile
 
After downloading the correct tool, I have the "build" button.
 
Thank you Tom.

After downloading new copy of Library Expert Lite, I noticed only some of the Surface Mount and Through Hole definitions displayed the"Build Part" button. The solution to displaying the "Build Part" button consistently was to re-size the graphics window, I'm using 1 monitor, by dragging the "dividing bar" between the "dimension" window and the "graphics window" towards the "dimension window."  Now I see the Build Part" button for all SMT and THRU Hole parts.

You must select the OK button. The indicator light in the Viewer cannot be Red, it must be Green.
