UP front: Sorry for the cross-post
I just visited Texas instruments and am in some haste to make changes to a
board layout (the chip I used in original layout has become a long-lead
item, too long, infact, for our company meet delivery to our
customer)...Anyway, I was looking up footprint info
Just a suggestion folks.When you vist sites like TI.com, and when you're
looking for footprint info, I would urge you to take the extra 1-1/2
minutes
to urge them to provide such support...
this is the addres of ti's suggestions box...
I have imported an Orcad .DSN project into DXP and need to modify the design
and re-layout the board. The imported files resulted in four SchDoc's, one
PCB and one SchLib - my question is how do I extract the footprint
information for the components from the PCB? The schematic symbols are all
in
AMEN! HALLELUJAH!
Someone spoke my thoughts exactly. Maybe Altium's stuff would become
more accepted and more universal, so more people would be using it, so
with more people screaming about some of the problems and unfriendliness
we have all encountered, it would get fixed and fixed much

What does the lack of an industry wide standard for component footprints
have to do with Altium? They are but one EDA vendor and there are certainly
orders of magnitude more component manufacturers than EDA vendors. The
problems and unfriendliness are prevalent and unique to each EDA vendor's
tool

Never mind,
I engaged my brain and figured it out: Design/Make PCB Library
Someday I'll learn to think *before* I post.
