Subject: [PEDA] Using library


Hi,
I've some question about the library system of Protel in a shared evnironment.

A- It's possible to define some global library and local library for a 
project? At now I haven't find a solution...

Yes, you can connect as many libraries to your Protel station as you like. Some of 
them might be on the network, some on the local drive. Each Protel station can have 
different libraries connected. You could also have a library inside your_project.ddb.

B- How It's possible to avoid invalidity of data in a library when tow 
people modify the library at same time...

You could lock the file. That means that only one person at the time has write 
privileges to the file. We only allow write privileges to our main library to the 
administrator.

It's better there's only one person who can modifying the library in the 
work group and all the other
modify a local library and after all they ask them to upgrading the global 
library?

That's the way we do it, or rather, quite similar to what we do.

C- It's better we use the M$-Access database format or the Windows File 
system?.

We use Access file format for security and space saving reasons. Access file format 
takes up only a third of the drive space when compacted, compared to the Windows 
format.

D- We have used already the M$-Access database, but some time the files 
being destroyed by Protel (we use Protel 99SE):
have you encountered the same problem? If affermative: have you reach to 
avoid this so strange trouble?

If your database gets corrupted you could do a 'Repair database'. Look into the help 
files or the book.

Thak's in advance.

You are welcome.

Re: [PEDA] Protel to Orcad Schematic

2002-07-15 Thread Drew


Hello,

I can confirm what Dennis knows.
Protel exports the SDT version of a schematic, but not the SDT
library/symbols required by Capture v7.2 and above to translate the SDT
version.  The issue of correctly modifying the "SDT.cfg" file, required to
up-rev an SDT design to v7.2 and above, is moot without the SDT
library/symbols.

Re: [PEDA] LCD screens WAS: Hardware questions (upgrade time - yuk!)

> the only reason for which I'd ever change a screen resolution would be to
> _increase_ it. I don't need menus and toolbars to take half of my screen

Some of us folks like bigger fonts so they are more readable.  My 21 in. CRT
is capable of 1600x1200 (at least), but I run it at 1152x768 because text
gets too small for my liking.  I can see fine when wearing my contacts
(which I do every day), but my CRT is about 2-3 ft. from my face (because
that's where I want it).  So if I use higher res, the text gets too small.
I can put in a long day (12+ hrs.) with no eyestrain with this setup.

Why is my CRT so far from my face?  Because the space inbetween is taken up
by papers, tools, prototypes under test, etc.  Typical design engineer desk
mess.

the only reason for which I'd ever change a screen resolution would be to
_increase_ it. I don't need menus and toolbars to take half of my screen
area at low resolutions. I always run the highest res the screen supports.

Talking of laptops, is anybody running Protel on 1600x1200 resolution
Toshiba laptops ? I've seen a few models with this screen and liked it. The
only problem for me was XP, because I run several other programs which

I have a Dell 17" LCD monitor, it works quite well for Protel.  It is the model

1702FP.  List price is $799.  It seems best to keep it at 1280 x 1024
resolution,
although it does a pretty good job of interpolating for 1024 x 768.  Some other

resolutions really show artifacts.  I've been using it for 9 months or so, and
am real happy with it.  I can't say it is BETTER than a really fine CRT with a
good video card, but it definitely is not worse.  Even color rendition on
photographic or synthetic images with smooth color gradients looks as good
as a good CRT.

I also tried a 15" Dell LCD, and it definitely was inferior.

The 2060u specs are almost identical to the 2040u.  Probably just firmware & 
monitor main board improvements.  Remember, since
the monitor's internal DSP synthesizes & regulates all signals to the yoke, yoke 
feedback, flyback, dynamic focus, & dynamic beam
convergence, improvements on the firmware alone can improve the final picture quality. 
 I still say that this screen at 1280x1024
can compete with a reasonably good LCD screen with regard to sharpness & the dead on 
convergence & focus, but, I do like the ability
to run it at a clean flawless 2048x1536 when Protel-ing.  I still like the 1280x1024 
for regular desktop & Quartus work.  I guess I
could fix this if I sat down and re-configured all the desktop font & icon size 
settings.

Never seen this monitor.  But, from the photos on Nec's & Mitsubishi's new LCD 
screens, the outside borders are so small that
tiling them with dual or quad head would probably be a pleasurable experience.  In 
fact, if you search a little, you may find some
desktop LCD displays which are near borderless.  I have decided to go all LCD once I 
could find a 2048x1536 screen which doesn't
make these horizontal line tears in animations.  This means a synchronous refresh of 
pixels to the incoming video signal.  So far, I
saw 1 18 inch LCD screen without the tearing, but its expensive, though the picture 
motion is perfect & the pixel transition time is
1/4 that of the current LCD screens.

The XGL series has a significantly more powerful 3D opengl engine designed for 3D 
opengl cad based usage.  This is not the same
as their 3D opengl gaming cards.  There is a lot more lighting & detail on these, but, 
if you used them for gaming, they will
probably not give you the same speed as a GF4TI4600 card, unless you configure the 
output in cheaper game quality mode.  DoomIII,
with near ray-trace grade output, (competes with the Final Fantasy movie with the 
right video card), a card like this might get you
all the way there.

Now, the CRT+CTR, or LCD+CRT, or LCD+LCD question.  Arrrg,  you are correct, you 
cannot go LCD+CRT with these cards unless you
(A) run your LCD in analog mode, or (B) use the Y LCD+LCD standard DVI cable adapter 
(supplied upon request of purchase), & put an
analog adapter on one of the LCD outputs.

No, it's a full color authentic LCD screen.

The color was fully saturated like a CRT.  Originally, I've only seen such 
contrast & color on some of the better camcorder LCD
view finders screens made by Sharp, but their resolution sucked.

I guess all I'm saying is that this is something new in LCD screens, & the 
polarizer & back light combination which created such
a perfect, full black to white display for a commercial 800x600 outdoor screen may 
soon be available for the higher resolution
desktop displays.  When I say black, I mean NO LEAKING off white or gray visible at 
odd angles.  This is the black you would expect
necessary to create full saturated colors.  In fact it's so good, it's sickening.

And why is it that the STUPID 17 inch outdoor LCD screen at my local Wendy's
Drive thru has better contrast and color than the
indoor desktop LCD screens?  Even when the temperature is -20 outside?  (Though,
the pixel transition speed around scrolling text
begins to suffer dramatically.)

Your Wendy's has a color display, not just red letters on black? None I've been
to have more than red on black.

The Red on Black are great because they have really large pixels and they are
monochrome. The bigger the pixel the better the contrast, and with a monochrome
LCD you can get more twist to make the contrast better. Then you can put a
really bright LED backlight behind it and you have  nice outdoor display.

I've fought with trying to find a good LCD for outdoors and the best were large
character high contrast monochrome ones with LED backlight. My boss at a former
job at one point wanted to use an industrial laptop, but the guys at the
entrance to the car wash couldn't read it in the sunlight. He promptly disavowed
all knowledge of it an we got stuck trying  to make it work after everything was

Re: [PEDA] Using library

2002-07-15 Thread Emanuel Zimmermann

Ferdinando,


What you are trying to do is about the way we currently are working here. To 
have a halfway proper setup you should choose the database storage system. With 
this system you can setup workgroups with individual logins for each member and 
then are able to (manually) lock (write protect) the files you are working with.

We have a central "library.ddb" database where all common libs are stored. 
Individual components can be defined in librarys within each "design.ddb".

Please see also the comments interspaced below:

> A- It's possible to define some global library and local library for a 
> project? At now I haven't find a solution...


Include the common "library.ddb" with the Add Library-Button and the local libs 
within the ddb.


> B- How It's possible to avoid invalidity of data in a library when tow

With the lock mechanism built in when a workgroup is set up. However it's not a 
very smart implementation and - at least in my eyes - not really usable!

That's exactly how we do it here.

Not sure, but I think if you set up a workgroup and like to benefit from the 
file lock mechanism Access database format is a must.

We are using the database format since the start of 99SE and - knock on wood - 
never had a data integrity problem. We are running NT4 latest SP, maybe that 
with W95/W98/ME such problems can rise up. I'm sure there's another group member 
with more experience in this context.

Re: [PEDA] PPC to word insertion

2002-07-15 Thread Michael . Binning


Oddly enough, I found that the copy and paste from PrintPreview nearly
always caused problems with arcs becoming circles.

Thats why I resorted to the slightly lower quality way of using the screen
capture method.
