[PCB_FORUM] Re: Is anyone having Allegro crashing issues using SPB 16.1 and laptop computers?

Uh, I use NET_PHYSICAL_TYPE and NET_SPACING_TYPE quite often in my RF
designs...  both properties are quite available in 16.01.

Hi Austin,

 

We noticed that NET_PHYSICAL_TYPE and NET_SPACING_TYPE were missing from
the net properties.  These properties are used extensively throughout
our designs.  We also noticed that Allegro crashed every time when we
plotted a drawing.  Right now, 16.0 isn't right for us at this time.
We're going to try to up-reving in the future when it isn't so busy.  

 

Thanks,

Hi Dale,

 

What features were missing in 16.0?

 

Regards,

 

Austin

        We have switched back to 15.7 because of all the crashes and a
few missing features in 16.0.

        We were crashing a lot and cadence told me to download the
latest video driver because open-gl was causing the problem.

        After I downloaded the latest driver it is 90% better.

        Yes, tons of crashes, Unix A16.01
        Today's flavor routing diffs.  
        Doing a study with lots of drc's I remember there being an issue
once before regarding that, I wonder if it's a reborn enhancement?  
        I've also seen this while using the shape functions
create/modify/z-copy.

        Is anyone having Allegro crashing issues using SPB 16.1 and
laptop computers?

         

        Have received a few comments of Allegro 16.1 crashing with Dell
M70 Laptops. Can anyone concur with similar problems ( or on any
laptop)?

         

        If so, and better yet, do you know  what may be causing this.  I
am using a Dell M60 laptop and have had no issues. But I have not yet
started using the 16.1 release of software.
