Hi All, Is it possible to generate a symbol from xilinx/Alteara/Lattice PIN file in DxDesigner? I just don't seem to find any option to do that...Am I missing...
I've been poking around DX looking for a way to eliminate the numeric pins numbers. I'm specifically trying to use E-B-C terminals for transistors instead of...
As far as I know you can give the pin # attribute any value you want. I just went to one of our transistors and changed the #= from #=1 to #=B. However, you...
Thanks! I have to agree with you about it creating more symbols and footprints. The mapping sugestion hadn't occurred to me, and that definetely souds like...
Hi Bryan, ... Here are two (if they come through). One with the "text" set to "NC" and one with the "text" set to "X". I wrote a "filter" program that I use...

... an ... Here are two TechNotes from Mentor that may help you... How to create an NC symbol that is ignored by the partslister and does not get into the...
I used to work for Mentor as a Applications Engineer (Phone Jockey). Thanks for the offer but no need I already have a symbol. Also I usually run two config...
Ok guys..I think I am missing something here...I find it difficult to create a hierarchical design in DxDesigner. I have some experience with few other popular...
A couple of things: 1. Could you please upload those symbols to the file directory on the users group site? That way they could be used by all. I got the...
When using Save, often the message "Data not modified" appears in the bottom right had corner of the DxDesigner's frame, even though the schematics have been...

Tom, I would also like to be able to do that as I do with Orcad, PCAD, and Protel, but there does not seem to be that functionality in DxD unless it is so...
Hi Guys, Hierarchical design with DxD is *really* easy, and certainly not a weakness. It works very well. I have hundreds of schematics that are hierarchical....
Austin, Yes, that is how to do it, but I think Tom was originally asking if there was an easier way. Doing it that way is long and tedious, in my opinion,...
Have you tried the FUB functionality? It allows you to drag a net to a FUB block and automatically create the port on the symbol. This only fixes part of the...
Hi Terrence, ... Easier? I can't imagine anything easier! You make a symbol...that's pretty much it. You'd have to draw the underlying schematic anyway...so...
There are two options here. 1. if you are doing top down design, start off by adding a FUB symbol to the schematic and connecting all of the necessary signals...
Jason, #2 looks like it just might be what I have been looking for. There were some problems in the process. Some times it works, and sometimes it does not,...

You sent this to the Dx Designers newsgroup so I assume you have experience on that schematic tool. What layout tool do you use? Allegro, Pads , Expedition,etc...
