If this board was produced from a multi-sheet schematic, you may have a problem with "placement rooms" - these are generated by default, and will march away to the upper right of the board. Unfortunately, the display of these rooms is turned off by default - do "Options/Show/Hide" to display them. They can be removed under "Design Rules/Placement" (and prevented by unchecking "Create Rooms" in the synchronizer) -- Peter Bennett TRIUMF 4004 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver, BC, Canada GPS and NMEA info and programs: http://vancouver-webpages.com/peter/index.html * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
