Re: "It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image" when posting image from imgur
It isn't necessary to link to images on other websites for this forum. Images can be attached directly to a post and, as far as I know, will remain with the post as long as the DipTrace forum is around.

Re: Need Help - Copper Pour does not work.
The board outline on the dip file is shown as a board cutout. Convert it to a board outline and the pour should work.

Re: Net ports
I've not been able to duplicate this. I've found that nets connected to a particular net port will take on the name of that port. If I rename any net connected to a particular net port, the other nets connected to that same net port are changed also. However, the majority of my boards are analog in ...

Re: 3D export 4.3.0.4
I did a fresh STEP file export from DipTrace 4.3.0.4 and imported it into SolidWorks 2022 SP5.0. On my system it behaves as expected. SW_STEP_IMPORT.jpg Here are my import settings: SW_IMPORT_SETTINGS.jpg SolidWorks can be infuriatingly particular about the video card and video driver. Maybe a video...

Re: NPT holes missing copper
I think they are saying that if there is copper around the hole on either side of the substrate then the hole will get plated. They remove the .25mm ring of copper so that doesn't happen. Is there a specific reason that the holes need to be non-plated? I have created PCBs with thru-hole components t...

Re: Shortcuts to the most frequently used components
I don't know of a way to assign a hot key to a specific component. What I did is create a custom component library of my most used power, common, return, etc. symbols. I did the same for test points and net ports. One click to select the library and one more click to select the symbol. When I start ...
