How to decide wich database to select Oracle database or embedded database for Capital 2014
Hi,
I have a PCB project. In the options of PCB Layout the unit is Metric.
In the DXDesigner on the first page is the attribute UNIT=METRIC set.
he attribute Geometry.Height is in mm on the xDX Designer side.
Like 6.00mm for LED1 (== 236.22mil)
If I want do backward from PCB by the xDX Designer Link I get every time this:
*PADS-ECO-V10.0-MILS*
*REMARK* old file: L:\PCB\prj\2010\LPSFE2\DATA.asc
*REMARK* new file: L:\PCB\prj\2010\LPSFE2\ED000-LPSF03.asc
*REMARK* created by ECOGEN (Version 6.4v) on 30.11.2015 12:47:48
*SET_ATTRIBUTE* PART LED1
"Geometry.Height" 236.22mil
*SET_ATTRIBUTE* PART LED2
"Geometry.Height" 236.22mil
*SET_ATTRIBUTE* PART TR3
"Geometry.Height" 1574.80mil
...
..
And this will fail because MIL != METRIC.
Where is the hidden option to change the unit from mil to metric in backward??
Hello,
I am developing in Visual Basic 2010 Express. We have done most of our scripting using Forms (.efm) and VBScript for xPCB. I am having trouble editing a cell after CellEditor is started (and visible) from xPCB Layout.
I may be overlooking something very obvious here...
I already have:
-Set references in VBE (MGCPCB*.tlb and Cell*.tlb)
-Connected to xPCB
-Validated the license token
-Set the ActiveDatabase
-Looped the Partitions (only 1)
-Looped the Cells
-Started CellEditor and made it visible
This works (code snippet I found) in VBScript:
' Get the Cell Editor object from the PCB document
Set cellEdObj = oPCBdoc.CellEditor
' Set the Cell Editor to be visible so we can see it
cellEdObj.Visible = False
Set cellDB = cellEdObj.ActiveDatabase
' Loop through all of the Cell Partitions
For Each Part In cellDB.Partitions
' Loop through all of the Cells in each Partition
For Each Cell In Part.Cells
If Cell.Name = "P47F_NO_HS" Then
' Call the Cell Graphics Editor
Set cellDoc = Cell.Edit()
MsgBox("Edit")
Set cellApp = cellDoc.Application
' Make sure the Cell Graphics Editor is visible
cellApp.Visible = True
MsgBox("Visible")
' This is where a real application would do something
' useful. This example script does nothing but sleep
' for half a second before closing the Graphic Editor.
'Scripting.Sleep(500)
cellDoc.Close(False)
MsgBox("Close")
' Do some clean up
Set cellApp = Nothing
Set cellDoc = Nothing
End If
Next
Next
' Close the Cell Editor
cellEdObj.Quit
Call oPCBapp.Gui.StatusBarText("Done.")
This VBE code fails at the Edit:
' open CellEditor and close it
'Dim oCellED As CellEditorAddinLib.CellEditorDlg
'Dim oCellDB As CellEditorAddinLib.CellDB
oCellED = CType(oPCBDoc.CellEditor, CellEditorAddinLib.CellEditorDlg)
oCellED.Visible = True
oCellDB = oCellED.ActiveDatabase
Console.Write(vbCrLf & oCellDB.Partitions.Count)
For z As Integer = 1 To oCellDB.Partitions.Count
oPart = oCellDB.Partitions.Item(z)
Console.Write(vbCrLf & oPart.Name.ToString)
Console.Write(vbCrLf & oPart.Cells.Count)
For y As Integer = 1 To oPart.Cells.Count
oCell = oPart.Cells.Item(y)
Console.Write(vbCrLf & oCell.Name.ToString)
oCellDoc = CType(oCell.Edit, CellEditorAddinLib.Cell)
oCellGFX = CType(oCellDoc.Edit, CellEditorAddinLib.CellEditorDlg)
'oCellDoc.Visible = True
oCellGFX.Visible = True
'MsgBox("OPEN")
'oCellDoc.Quit()
oCellGFX.Quit()
Next
Next
MsgBox("OPEN")
oCellED.Quit()
Hello,
What is the best way to deal with jiffy splices? They are a connected male and female terminals covered by a sleeve. As a connector I always have to create a zero length bundle to show both wires coming in from either side. As a splice the terminals could be additional components but you can't assign the male/female terminal to its designated wire. This would probably create an issue down the line when running it through TVM as the terminals get terminated like any other wire.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

We have been running Modelsim on our Linux machine using a remote license server. We recently changed to a node-locked license and just received the license file. When I export values of LM_LICENSE_FILE and MGLS_LICENSE_FILE to point to the new license file location and try to run Modelsim, I get the error message:
Unable to checkout a license. Make sure your license file environment variable (e.g., LM_LICENSE_FILE)
is set correctly and then run 'lmutil lmdiag' to diagnose the problem.
Unable to checkout a license. Vsim is closing.
** Fatal: Invalid license environment. Application closing.
When I run 'lmutil lmdiag' I get the following:

-----------------------------------------------------
From the "put_server_name_here" you can tell I haven't entered a server name, thinking it's not relevant since we have the node-locked license on our system. I shouldn't have to run mgcld, should I? Do I need to delete the server section from the license file?
What do I have to do to get Modelsim (vsim) running on the new license?
Thanks,
Ron
Hi Everyone,
does anyone know if VeSys can calculate the correct bundle width with insulation when heatshrink is used?
I've tried with heatshrink defined as a tube however, regardless of the value given to the bore, the bundle width with insulation is always = heatshrink bore + 2 * the heatshrink thickness
e.g with a 6mm bundle and heatshrink bore = 0, thickness = 0.5 then bundle width with insulation is reported as 1.0mm and with a 6mm bundle and heatshrink bore = 8, thickness = 0.5 then bundle width with insulation is reported as 9.0mm
Thanks

Hi evory one,
I have ben Scripting for expedition for a wile and I always assumed that there is just one View draw process running at once and if there were more I just told the user to close one.
In the new VX there are now always two processes named View draw running.
the question now is which one to Hook on to ?
and
How do you fellow users ensure that your c# script connects to the right Application if there is more than one open dxDesigner ?
I access dxd usually like this
or
Dos any one know how to acces the ViewDraw application if i loop throw all open ViewDraw Processes
Thank for any help
Greetings,
I am looking for a .bas macro script to run in Pads that will generate an excel report of all the pin-pairs selected. It would be nice if the report would contain all the same information as in the "Pin Pair Properties" dialog including the delay, impedance and length.
Does anyone know of a script that would accomplish something like this?
Thanks,
I want make the schematic as hierarchical design. I have created the top sheet with symbols and connections. on every opening the top sheet, error meassage window pop up.
"Failed to open document". If click on the OK button in error meassage window, the top sheet opens and I can work with the sheet. Does anybody know anythingaboutsuch a problem?
Hello,
I have been doing research on this topic and found that it was possible to create global net signal properties. However, what I would like to do is create global properties to represent other things, such as temperature. Is there a way to do that?

I have two questions about this data exchange format;
1) Does anyone know of a script that has been written to export the IPC-2581 format from PADS Layout?
2) Mentor Graphics is listed as a member of the IPC-2581 consortium. Does Mentor have any plans to implement IPC-2581 as an export option in PADS Layout?
hello everyone,
i'v download a schematic project from xilinx. they provide this schematic project in dxdesigner format. i installed pads9.3 and use it to open the project.
the new dxdesigner tells me to upgrade the project into new format. i click ok, but very soon error is coming, it tells that "Migration stopped because of problems with WIR files generation".
i searched a lot information without happy result. i need your help. please tell me how to open the project.
Hi,
is there a way to act with a user script, when the User run for example the GenCad Export Dialog? see picture
I want run my own script to generate this data, so I will ensure, that when the User who opens the General Interface, in exact this moment I can fire my own things!
