[PCB_FORUM] Re: Concept Hilite

Mark,
 
You can always add it to the $CDS_SITE/cdssetup/projmgr/site.cpm file
(if you have one) and it will be inherited by all projects at your site.
Do you have a CDS_SITE?

        Ok, Thanks Charlie.
        I guess I have to do that on every project I am working on along
with the rest of our group.
        Just kind of irritating that there is no way to ignore / disable
the expand function if you do not need it.
        
        Thanks again,
        Mark

                Mark,
                 
                If you add what I suggested to the Concept section of
the cpm file, you should not be prompted to expand the design.  It will
expand automatically (you won't be prompted).  It needs to expand in
order to cross reference, but it only needs to expand once per session. 
                 
                Hope this helps.

                Regards,

                        Julian and Charlie,
                        Thanks for your reply. 
                        So you are not aware of a way to NOT have
Concept ask to expand after hiliting in Allegro?
                        
                        Usually, if I am simply hiliting / dehiliting
things in Allegro, I do not want to expand my schematic. 
                        I just want it to quit asking me and creating a
pop-up in Concept for EVERY hilite I do in the board.
                        Very annoying to hit (NO or X)  50 times if you
have hilited 50 nets in the board.
                        
                        This is all I have in my cpm file under Concept.
                        
                        START_CONCEPTHDL
                        LOGIC_GRID_TOGGLE 'OFF'

                        CLICK_TO_TYPE 'OFF'
                        PLOT_FIT_TO_PAGE 'ON'
                        PAPER_SIZE '135'
                        PAPER_ORIENTATION '2'

                        TAP_ADD_SIGNAL 'ON'
                        END_CONCEPTHDL
                        
                        Regards,
                        Mark

                                I am also interested in this fix.
                                One comment though: wouldn't you have to
wait forever before all the nets are expanded?
                                Just curious.

                                Hello all,
                                Using Concept and Allegro, when I hilite
a net in Allegro, I get the following irritating message in concept.
                                One message for everything I hilite and
I have to click NO or (X) on every one of them. This must be done before
doing anything else in the schematic.
                                
                                Pop-up Message reads: 
                                Do you want to expand to see the net in
the entire design?
                                
                                Any ideas?
                                
                                Thanks,
                                Mark
