Hi, I noticed on the Library Expert Version 2017.05, that there is only one choice ("Proportional") for the Fab Level on the Pad Stack Calculator for through hole. I just upgraded the software from Library Expert Version 2014.08, and that gave five choices for the Fab Level for through holes: Most(A), Nominal(B), Least(C), User, and Proportional(P). Why is it that just "Proportional" only exists in the Version 2017.05 software? Thanks for your time and help, --Patricia |

The IPC-7351 through-hole portion never got released and there is no standard for through-hole technology yet. The original 3-Teir proposal was full of problems that never got published. However, "Preferences > Terminal > Through-hole" has a lot of options. V2017.05 introduced 70 new educational videos in Help > Topics Through-hole Preference video. http://www.pcblibraries.com/products/fpx/userguide/default.asp?ch=2.7" rel="nofollow - http://www.pcblibraries.com/products/fpx/userguide/default.asp?ch=2.7 ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |
