[PCB_FORUM] Re: IDF IN problem

Try to use idf_in.exe file from 15.5 or 15.2.
We experienced problems with idf_out.exe in 15.7. But using .exe file of 
previous version solved it.

Regards,

What Version of Allegro you are using? Is it 15.7?

        This is for anyone that uses Import-idf in Allegro. Presently we
import idf placement and board outline
        data from SolidWorks. I'd like to see if anyone has seen a
problem reading in placement files and having
        components NOT move if the mechanical data wants it to? We have
a board with two LED's placed using
        the wrong orientation, the lens of the LED facing inboard. The
orientation and origin of the part both agree
        in the mech model and in the Allegro footprint. After reading
the .emn file into the board to see if it corrects
        the orientation of the LED it DOES NOT not move, still facing
inboard. If I manually move the part a few mils away
        or delete the part and re-read the same identical .emn file into
the board it places the part in the proper
        location and proper orientation facing outboard. I'm not quite
sure at what point the inboard orientation happened
        and don't understand why reading in the same .emn file results
in two different orientations. After looking at
        the .emn file we noticed that the orientation of the part is at
-90.....As Allegro always show deg in positive 
        increments is it possible that this could be a problem? Has
anyone else seen this happen?

        thanks,
