Very strange I think, maybe someone can help me.
For me the working hours are done for this day, I will go home
Hello Rob,
Thanks for your help.
Meanwhile I informed the Protel support in Europe about the situation.

This line of text gave me the hope that it would work in the same way as the
'Clearance Constraint'.
The same text can be found at page 542 in the handbookp99se.pdf file which
could be downloaded from the www.protel.com site.
Thanks for your time,

The problem is easy to solve, use the menu Place=>Keepout=>Track. This
results directly in a 'No Net / keepout' track
Nevertheless I mention the small problem because if we don't mention any
problems then Protel cannot solve them.
We know that Protel is listening to us

Try pressing the 'End' key if you think the screen is incomplete. This will
redraw the screen.

emember so i was wondering how
it was possible that such an Protel expert did not know about the redraw
'End' key. I should know better before answering with this response.
Sorry

27;Use software arcs'.
This option could be found in the 'advanced tab' of the Gerber setup.
The arc will be replaced by short straight line segments.
The gerber file could be imported back into the pcb.
This is not my own idea, in the past it was mentioned by someone on the

Start 'report library component compare'
Protel reports: library component 'X' found # times. Version 1.5 and
Version 1.6
Do you want to show them in overlay mode and highlight differences?
After checking the differences, choose 'Update

remember wich components need an update if I want to make a new revision of
an old design.

I think it is already in Protel, look in the 'handbookp99se.pdf' at page
142. You can find the file at www.protel.com. The pagenumber might be
different if Protel/Altium updated the file. Look for the subject 'Preparing

to a component to give it more intelligence. The
next step could be to add programming options to library components. Why
should we use a lot of different footprints for radial components with
different diameters if it could be one footprint with some extra parameters?

I think I will receive it in the near future. I can't imagine they will

t 'same name' components. Is it possible for Protel to
create one project library file which contains two different components with
the same name?
I would like a function which compares the components on the sheet with the
library and then generates a report with differences.
Hope i did not
activity's?
Even if the software is free, then I can't take that risk.

In the 'Preferences' settings is a checkbox 'OrCAD (TM) Ports. I think that
is what you are looking for.

ng happens at all. A funny
guy at the Protel Helpdesk told me that the problem was caused by the
printer driver I use. (HP deskjet 1100C). A strange remark "kind of help"
because everything worked fine until today and printing schematic files
still works fine.

Hello All,
Yesterday we had some printing problems. The problem is solved now, we had
to reinstall the PCBprint server.
We don't know why the server was 'lost'.
Have a nice weekend,
