I wish to edit my pin numbers.
 
Right clicking on the pin and clicking properties takes me into the pin properties window but I cannot change anything.
 
This means I have to change the pins in Allegro thus creating a mismatch with my FPX library.
 
I am trying to do this on a Chip array.
 
Any ideas?

Can you please send us the datasheet or attach the web-link to the datasheet with the non-standard pin assignments?
 
Our programmers only add new features to component families when there is proof that something exists. We can give the programmers the component manufacturer datasheet and say "I want to make this footprint".
 
There is a lot more than just adding pin number "reorder". We also have to completely update the Pin 1 polarity marker and assembly outline to accomodate the new pin assignment.
 
Thanks!
