It is working under Xpedition VX.1.1.
Thanks.

Please download/install it again. The initial build didn't have the file, there is a newer build that does include it.

@Nick B: The Xpedition VX instructions aren't saying anything about the error I get: No executable file found.
According to chrisa_pcb:

You should have an executable in your main Application directory called EncryptData.exe.
Normal pathing for this would be say: C:\Program Files (x86)\PCB Libraries\Library Expert 2015
If you don't see this file, uninstall the program, download the latest release and then install it.

I have downloaded the latest Lite version 2015_21 but no EncryptData.exe file in the directory.
What is going wrong?

Thank you for the report.

We get concerned when a CAD tool interface does not work and we can't reproduce the problem.

This is good news for us.

I'm going to archive this post.

Thanks for looking into the 3D mode crashing when going into 3D mode but at this point the issue seems to be mysteriously gone. Just went back and exported the same parts from the land pattern generator and it seems to work. Wasted about three hours the other day trying to figure out why it was not working. Having it work now drives me crazy but that is what is happening. Have the correct license and have been using the 3D feature from the beta release of VX1.2 so do know how to get the tool to work. For now lets assume it was user error, even though I was using the exact same process, or my computer was doing something weird.

Apologize for bothering you.

Just tested the V2015.21 version for Xpedition VX.1.1 import.
If I choose Encrypted ASCII, I get the error: No executable file found.
Do I have to set some pointers or preferences?

I do not have PADS VX1.2 installed, but our programmer does.

Keep using PADS V9.5 until our programmer returns the week of February 8.

We might easily find and fix the issue, but it will have to go into V2016.01 as V2015.21 was the last release of the 2015 series.

V2016.01 will be released in February.

Thanks Tom. Did try the new version before I posted and had the same results. For now I will just export to version 9.5. ]]> Fri, 29 Jan 2016 15:55:13 +0000 https://www.PCBLibraries.com/forum/mentor-graphics-vx_topic1615_post7458.html#7458
