CS-14477 PCB Design Import In DXF import, when a block containing text is inserted more than once, the block reference position is applied more than once causing the text to appear in the wrong place.

CS-14472 PCB Design Layers When switching layer type from electrical (containing poured copper) to Powerplane in Design Editor, there is no warning that the poured copper will be deleted.

CS-14432 SCM Design Attribute On upgrading pre-CADSTAR 13.0 designs, attributes on all connector pins (except the first pin), are not visible.

CS-14423 CS-13249 PCB Design ODB++ A PCB design will fail to export to ODB++ if it contains arcs with centre points outside of the ODB++ design size limits.

CS-14424 Documentation Getting Started. There is a requirement for instructions on where to install the documentation.zip file which can be obtained from the CADSTAR 13.0 download site.

CS-14410 SCM Design Reload Lib Changes Design Editor will crash when performing Reload in Item Properties on a Documentation Symbol which is assigned to all schematic sheets.

CS-14387 PCB Design Import Fewer objects may be imported via DXF import than expected, when the DXF file contains items drawn on a layer other than 0 with the colour set to "ByLayer".

CS-14364 PCB Design

Design compare Transfer to PCB may fail to complete while reading assignment data from each PCB library when many library paths are defined.

CS-14361 PREditor PREditor In PREditor the Control, Wheel Mouse Zoom Out function does not move the cursor to the centre of the screen.

CS-14358 PCB Design Import More objects may be imported via DXF import than expected, when the DXF file contains items drawn on layer 0 with the colour set to "ByLayer".

CS-14348 PCB Design Import DXF files fail to import into CADSTAR if they have a header section containing only EXTMIN and EXTMAX variables.

CS-14345 PCB Design ECO Update For designs using Legacy Constraint Management, ECO update and Back Annotation operations, the user is asked several times if they wish to use the new

Constraint Management system.

CS-14336 PCB Design Colours The Apply All option in the Colours, Layers dialog does not apply to the Drill Table categories.

CS-14333 PCB Design Export In the IDF online help, details of which printable non-alpha characters are mapped to which replacement characters is missing.

CS-14331 PCB Design Attribute names When Impedance Templates (or other attributes) are removed from Net Classes in PREditor, they are not removed from the Net Class in Design Editor when the RIF is read back in.

CS-14315 Constraint manager Pin Pairs In PREditor, it is not possible to create a Pin Pair manually if one of the selected pins belongs to a component which is not fitted in a variant.

CS-14308 SCM Design Item Properties Design Editor will crash when performing Reload in Item Properties on a Documentation Symbol which is assigned to all schematic sheets.

CS-14288 PCB Design E3 Back Annotation from CADSTAR PCB Design Editor to E3 Schematic Editor will fail when no variants are selected for export.

CS-14257 PCB Design Export RIF Design with a large number of layers and a large number of layer reassignments

may cause a memory overwrite when generating RIF data, resulting in a crash in PREditor.

CS-14251 PCB Design Import Design Editor may fail to import poured copper with a message "Serious Error: Shape starting at (<co-ordinate>) on <layer> is not valid" when arcs in the copper geometry are almost touching.

CS-14226 PCB Design Report Generator In Report Generator, IF statements do not take the following transformations into account, which can affect component positions: -Origin setting -Offsets -Rotation -Mirroring

CS-14211 PCB Design Report Generator Report Generator does not output the correct angle for mirrored components.

CS-14213 SCM Design Export

When launching the Constraint Browser from Design Editor, the warning that is displayed for multi-pin passive components should describe the appropriate corrective action.

CS-14186 PCB Design Export Design Editor may crash on save when attributes reserved for nets are created on other design items.

CS-14148 PCB Design Layers When switching layer type between power plane and electrical, the overall board thickness changes. This can cause differences in impedance calculations and simulation results.

CS-14139 PCB Design Attribute editor When cutting or deleting a range of cells in Design Editor's Attribute Editor, hidden rows/columns between selected visible cells are also deleted.

CS-13968 EMC EMC PIA is not compatible with designs containing variants.

CS-13754 PCB Design Export RIF When a long file/path name is used for a design, PREditor will crash when loading the design data.

CS-13716 Constraint manager Auto pin pairs Under some circumstances, creating Pin Pairs on an enet in Constraint Manager causes an internal error.

CS-13370 PCB Design Drawing The Design Editor window may switch to grey when zone dividing lines are drawn in the bottom left corner of the canvas.

CS-13310 PCB Design Export RIF Design Editor may fail to import poured copper with a message "Serious Error: Shape starting at (<co-ordinate>) on <layer> is not valid" when the start, end and centre of arcs in the copper geometry are not co-linear.

CS-13302 PCB Design Library Reload Full

Assignments are downloaded from higher priority library, even if it is unchecked in the library list.

CS-10601 SCM Design Add Connection When using Add Connection in 90 degree autorouting mode, a free angle connection is added when terminating on the corner of an existing connection.
