Allegro Options

   We will update the Allegro Interface instructions. But in the meantime, 

Certain
versions of Allegro will pop a confirmation box when a SSM (complex pad stack)
goes to save. This option is to auto-confirm it if you have one of those
versions. Normally its off and you turn it on if you get annoying confirmation
boxes at the end of a complex pad stack save. If you don’t, you’re good.
NO
PROBE – This will place a shape on the No Probe layer that will match the selected
constraints. The options for constraints are Component Body, the Footprint
Extents, or the Courtyard.

EXCESS – This expands or contracts the NO PROBE
extents by a static amount in millimeters. Has no effect if there is no NO
PROBE area selected.

	I could not find an explanation of the following on the allegro interface. Can you please explain what they are used for. Auto_Confirm SSM Save. I assume this is to keep from overriding existing SSM files? NO PROBE EXCESS Thanks!
