Hi Geoff, I have a tendency to agree with you, it has to be customized setting and/ or specific to this design. I got ahead of myself because I didn't test it with a second project. It is annoying right now. I tried rebooting , that didn't help. We had many exception errors with the initial release of AD6, I was the only person that did not have any problems. Then our crack IT team did something to the servers. I don't know what they do but they use anything but Microsoft. So there is no telling where my problem lies. Everyone elses exception errors went away and I inherited some. My performance sucks now. Exception errors are frequent on a Gateway with 4 Gig of RAM. I have a lesser machine in my home office with 2 Gig of Ram and the performance is much faster, and I can not recall ever getting an exception error. Then again I am using DXP SP6 on my home office. I really like SP6 a lot. I think I need to wait for a few major service packs on AD6 to feel comfortable with it. It literally has too much, and too many settings. Now I am rambling Mike Reagan
Hi Mike, If you can reproduce that error in a consistent manner, I suggest you report the issue to Altium, along with as precise (and brief) as possible a description of how you actually achieve that outcome. You are probably aware that there are many issues of this nature, and that they are typically intermittent in nature, and hence difficult to reproduce. OTOH, an issue of a distinctly reproducible nature has a much better chance of being successfully diagnosed and subsequently rectified. Because this issue might only occur with particular combinations of settings though, it would probably be helpful if you could also provide copies of assorted files which contain details of all of your current settings. The (folder) path on your PC will be different (in part because you are running AD6 rather than AD2004 SP4), but in the case of my PC, that would involve providing copies of all of the files in this subfolder: C:\Documents and Settings\Geoff\Application Data\Altium2004_SP4 And if there are any files in it, also providing copies of the files in this subfolder: C:\Documents and Settings\Geoff\Local Settings\ Application Data\Altium2004_SP4 And another (DXP Preferences) file which you should provide a copy of is created by selecting 'DXP >> Preferences...' (from the menu) and then clicking on the 'Save...' button in the resulting 'Preferences' dialog box. Are you a member of the Altium Community Forums (hosted by Altium)?

Does anybody know of a similar utility ?
