Hi,

I'm trying to generate a OrCAD footprint for a D-Sub connector (Harting_09663516512).

In LE (v.2017.17) it looks fine but in OrCAD (v. 17.2 S024) the 3.20 mm holes are 1.00 mm.


User Guide here: https://www.pcblibraries.com/products/fpx/userguide/default.asp?ch=206

Specifically follow the instructions on setting up your Allegro for FPX.

Setup -> User Preferences. Go to UI -> Padstack_editor. The options should match the below with 2 of the 4 boxes checked. Then the warnings should be filtered allowing the padstacks to save.

Workaround: delete the last two lines from the .scr file for that padstack:

QtSignal MainWindow Save triggered
QtSignal MainWindow Exit triggered


Then run the .bat file. 

This time the pad stack editor will open and wait for you to save the file. 

Manually save it, ignoring the warnings.
