Fixes & Enhancements:
  •  New Library Content:
    • Added link to the PCBPartz, a third party affiliate, for additional library content; requires separate paid subscription
  • Options:
    • SMD terminal courtyard transposed pad and body excess
    • The orientation image for SON /PSON was updated
  • Library Editor:
    • Copy/paste multiple cells not working correctly
    • Copy/paste Footprint Date was throwing exception error
    • Utilities > Find Duplicate Entries – now defaults to Part Number
  • FP Designer:
    • Creating through-hole pad stacks was not producing the "Solder Mask Top" layer
    • Rounded rectangle shape produces wrong pad stack name in Pad Stack Manager
    • Importing a .csv file did not work correctly if you accidentally assigned 2 rows the same value like 2 – "X Coor." Added a popup menu that alerts the user when a column description was already assigned.
  • CAD Tool Translators: 
    • The Siemens PADS Standard would not output a .d ASCII file. 
  • Calculator:
  • Molded Body – hung up when Nominal dimensions had 0.00 tolerance
    • Updated silkscreen trimming feature for footprints with large thermal pads
    • BGA Footprint Name and Physical Descriptions for mirrored parts
    • Chip LED – changing alphanumeric pins to numeric did not save the change to the FPX library
