I've used Protel since the V1.1 days. We stopped upgrading after buying a couple of licenses for 3.x, mainly because it does about 99% of our needs. I've had cursory looks at other versions as they came out, but nothing really grabbed me. Now I'm looking hard (using a trial cd with SP2), but I

Hi John, You said In some ways it is actually functionally better but I prefer to view it without all the WinXP finishing touches which makes it look worse than it is. Is there a 'classic' setting somewhere? The library panel really irritates me. It could be so much better. Regards, Roger * *

Hi Phillip, Could you just elaborate a little on The automatic generation of the *entire* FPGA's schematic sheet, drawing all the wires, assigning nets to the wires, creating the off sheet ports, creating the pin constraints file, and the FPGA pin assignments can be passed
