This year promises to be GREAT again! If you have seen any of the demos at the local user groups, a lot of new features are due out in 2007! We have some great...
This is the reason I advocate designing the symbols thoroughly up front, so that the text is in the right place and doesn't have to be moved later. Built in...
Tom, I took a quick look at Arena PLM & have a question about content integration. Avnet Promiere (as an example) has the ability to deliver content directly...

Hey Lucio, I may understand you correctly, but to change the colors in dxdesigner you should be able to click on the project menu, then select settings. When...
I thought I responded earlier, but I guess not. You need to delete all the lines that start with "Q" in the symbols and schematic ascii files. I used a text...
Hi all, It's been a while since I've used DxDesigner for schematic entry. Would someone refresh my memory on how to rotate the text on a component - such as a...

Hi All, Right now i am using OrCAD tool for schematic capturing and I have planned to use DxDesigner tool for schematic capturing for next project. Could any...
Hello Group, I'm in the process of switching software from P-cad to either Pads, Allegro or Orcad. Would you please take a few moments to inform me of the...
I've been using DxD for a year now and still miss some of the simple navigational and search features in Orcad. Many things in Orcad are a little more arduous...
I agree with Greg about creating symbols. In fact, I still use Orcad to create symbols and convert them to DxD as it is easier and faster that way for me. ...

Years ago they worked with us to get ECAD integration with DxDesigner, but our Access database (we use DxDatabook) is multi- level and had a lot more fields...
Easier things in Orcad: Searching for components, hit ctrl-F from anywhere and it flies to the symbol. Realizing I'm only in DxD for about a year, it still...

I have a number of places where I want to connect exactly two points that are on different sheets. Is there some sort of off-sheet connector that tells DxD...

What Gary says is true. RMB on the net, assign it a net name, and under the "Attributes" tab, add an "XREF" attribute in the "Name" field and then click...
Gary, Use your Project Navigator Contents window to track down the net and see if it is picked up on multiple pages. It still may not XREF, so you may need to...
Gary, Click on the net on each page and verify that the nets are named and not text next to the net. If text, highlight net and name the net. Hugh Simpson ...
