Hi Peder,
after beta testing the DXP, I suggest to upgrade, if protel is the tool
you do your daily work.
Nevertheless you should know :
- DXP is a new system, you have to invest some time to learn new methodes.
- the global select and change is fully changed, also not fully understood,
Hi,
Due to some weirdness at our assembly house, they can't accept a normal pick
and place file.
They want a Protel ASCII PCB file, which they then import and create the
necessary data for their machinery.
This has been OK up 'till now, with an output file format of 35MByte.
A recent variant

Georg,
Some of us cant afford to run in parrallel and certainly cant afford any
more Altium Frankenstein experiments.

Hi Jason,
No idea about the size limit, but does your assembly house require the poly
planes included?

Nope, one option (to reduce the file size) is as you imply to remove
unnecessary data, its just a faff.
(P.S. its 99se sp6)

Hello,
just a short question, as I did not have the time to evaluate the DXP trial
so far:
In the documentation/tutorials Altium placed on their website concerning
DXP I did not find a single word about a Specctra interface. Does DXP have
such an interface like 99SE or not, and did anyone test

with more ram if available. If not, try doing the save as with a few
more app's running (suck up even more memory) and see if the file gets
smaller

i couldn't' find it

Hi Matt,
another point I forgot to mention:
If you have launched Protel without loading the DDB (by pressing the STRG
key while Protel is loading), you can then try the repair function on the
DDB that crashes your system (Down Arrow/Design Utilities/Repair). You can
only repair DDBs which are
Yes, this was mentioned in one of my earlier posts, though, it was met with a
healthy dose of skepticism. I did recommend for
everyone to un-install anything Roxio related and completely switch over to Ahead's

i have had far less coasters w/ roxio than nero and i find it much

Probably not. I've been watching my harddisk like, and it rarely blinks.

Yeah I've had this one too. Didn't know about the control key though! I
renamed the file. The file is still corrupt though, and not sure how to fix
it. Tried repair, didn't work. I haven't worried about it too much, as its

You take it easy Mike. Maybe we'll see ya on the DXP forum someday.
Hi,
Running a Protel schematic through the rules checker before going anywhere
near the PCB layout (or SPICE for that matter) is a very good idea. Protel
may do this automatically when you create a netlist, but check all the
option settings to make sure it does what you want. Rule checking can
