fraught with peril because DipTrace connects net ports by library name instead of net name. It is worse, I rebuilt the connector, moved all the power pins to another page. Now I could use power net ports to wire to each pin of the connector, fixed that issue. BUT I wired the first net port it was a...

I have a 60 pin connector that I have labeled each pin with the signal name but when I started wiring the connector every pin wants to be GND or NET 6. When I added a wire from a +5V netport (stand alone Voltage Port) it assigned NET 5 to the wire as it was the first time I had wired +5V. When I try...

crossing wires with diptrace is a work around (step down grid, make crossing, step up grid). And for me this does not look professional/standard. I usually make the component match the connector while building the component, looks much better and is a lot less confusing. One PCB package I've used w...

Thank you for the suggestion about reducing RefDes numbers. We added assembly variants in version 4.1. You can create a variant where one of several components are excluded and this will be applied when you export BOM and Pick and Place. Great idea, save editing the P&P file, now please add text in...

That was it. For some reason I keep trying View/Pin Numbers
I just exported a layout to Eagle and that worked great except Eagle wouldn't let me see the 3D view....

Something new in 4.1.0.1 New component does not show pad numbers. I can create a component and the pad numbers are on but don't show in Component Editor, place the component in schematic still no pin numbers, mouse over a pin, it shows the pin number. Parts already created show pin numbers. This is ...

Yep, and you could have had 3 built in the US with free shipping for $19.57 - Go PCB shopping, you 'll be surprised. I'm looking at a PCB with blind buried micro (laser) VIA in 3mm pad, 3mil trace/space, 8 layer, you will not get that built in China.

I cannot believe you guys took out this feature for people that actually DO use flip footprint, instead of just addressing the bug that you had that wasn't doing the right thing. When I insert board connectors, it is much easier to have the pin numbering be identical between 2 boards and the just f...

That project had many little islands of copper pour defined, many. after a lot of screwing around (mouse is now laying in the snow outside, the left button decided to become intermittent) I got most of everything hooked up but: Eagle2.JPG This is what Eagle looks like and DipTrace should also: Egale...
