Quite right. Most board shops want to see the drill file saved as .txt not .drl ................... so please give us a tick box option to have it saved in the usual format (.txt) instead of .drl
Thanks.

I have changed this for upcoming version (not today's update yet): PCB Layout will remove pads if they were placed in Schematic and currently don't exist there.Tomg wrote: ↑04 Mar 2020, 10:51 Since the Renew Layout from Schematic tool will ignore any component with a one-object pattern due to the possibility of PCB-created pads, it might be a good idea to have the Schematic Editor's Convert to PCB tool also ignore components with one-object patterns. This might help users discover some problems a little earlier in the design processs. See this thread for a typical example - viewtopic.php?f=9&t=13275
DipTrace beta can deal with it too. Name all Vss pins "103@" or "@103" and you get no error message for similar pin numbers (@ is used just to avoid error message, similar pin numbers without @ works in the same way). Then in PCB/Schematic/Component Editor you will see rat-lines (dotted in PCB and red in others) between pins and you can use that as internal connection (jumper) or connect all pins to the net (options are available by right click on the pin). In Schematic or Component Editor you can connect Vss pin of the schematic symbol to one of 103 pads and get all of them connected.

1-Is it possible resizable IPC pattern generator in pattern editor.
I use 1366x768 screen resolution. As you can see attached image ı can not click oK or Cancel buttons.
2-Searching componenet takes long time. I mentioned before, standart librararies can not be editted by te user. So if program create index from libraries, i think finding component will take a short time.
3D rendering of all BGA balls works slower in Direct3D mode. We will try some optimizations in the next build. Please change graphics mode to OpenGL, it should work faster for rendering BGAs.KevinA wrote: ↑05 Mar 2020, 13:07 Strange 3D stuff: AMD Radeon R5 200 on test machine, when I loaded the BGA 3D devices in pattern editor Diptrace did a 'walk about' awhile. After I placed the two BGA patterns in PCB editor then tried to preview another 'walk about'. The TQFP part had no issues in pattern editor or PCB editor, I had to create a new PCB for that device since trial version only does 500 pins
See attached files - I loaded the PCB into 3.1, it barked but loaded, no issues, Nvidia Quadro Video card and that is what is on its way for the test computer, I hate AMD video cards.... a Driver thing.
FYI: The BGA patterns are broken, UltraLibrarian created patterns with 1,2,3,n numbers instead of a grid a1,a2,a3
I just switched Graphic modes, in OpenGL flipping the board around in 3D mode was bad. Windows and 3D ok but shudders
