From what Michael said, no. All you can do is read and learn. If you
need to clarify, or if you want to answer a questions, you'll have to go
to the website. I still think there's advantage to "read and learn" even
if you don't ever post anything...

Hi Jean,

 

You've made it clear it will send an email for each post that shows up,
but can you also reply to that email and have that email post just like
if you went to the web site?

 

Regards,

 

Austin

        Gary, I think you missed Mike's point...it will send you an
email. You only have to go to the site if you choose to reply. You'll
still get to see all the discussions and get to learn whatever you can
from them with just an email check.

        Michael,

         

        From Jean's post:

         

        *      I signed up for the CDNusers, but I never remember to go
there to see what's up. This appears in my email, is informative and
responsive, and thus all I really use.

         

        I agree 100%.  The most disruption I can afford is to check my
e-mail occasionally (save, check e-mail, get back to work!).

         

         

        From your post:

         

        *       The only major difference between the two forums is
CDNUsers.org Forums does not allow you to post/reply directly to the
forum via email so you have to login to the website to post a reply to a
post.

         

        Which is why this forum is all I'll use, unless the above about
CDNUsers.org Forum changes.

         

        Regards,

        Gary

        Hey Jean,

         

        I personally use both forums.  You can setup CDNUsers.org
account to send emails of the posts by checking the box next to "Email
me when someone posts to this forum".

        The only major difference between the two forums is CDNUsers.org
Forums does not allow you to post/reply directly to the forum via email
so you have to login to the website to post a reply to a post.

         

        See attached image to see what you need to do so you get the
posts on the forum to your email.

         

        Sincerely,

        Just curious...
        
        I noticed that the number of emails on this forum has 
        been picking up lately.
        
        Are folks subscribed to both Allegro forums?
        icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and cdnusers.org
        
        or 
        
        Do folks prefer one forum over the other?
        
        Looking for general comments. Personal Interest.
        
        Dave

multiple shapes and could only see the problem shape with boundary on. 

            This forum is always the first place to go when there's a
problem. Great help!

        Yup, just go to Drawing Options and click on the box to the left
of where it says Out of Date Shapes.  It will bring up a list, scroll
down and find the ones that are out of date and click the coordinates to
bring you to the exact location (it will tell you the layer it is on).
You may need to turn on the "Boundary" for that etch layer to see it due
to the shape priority (sometimes there are multiple shapes but only one
is visible.

        any easy way to find an out of date shape?

        Go into the "Drawing Options" and make sure they are all green.
Sometimes you have out of date shapes that prevent it from being up to
date.

        Hey guys,

         

        Allegro 610 Expert, Windows XP Pro.

         

        Well, my design has become "possessed"!

         

        No matter what I do, the Status shows DRC errors as "Out Of
Date" with 0 errors:

         

        - I ran Tools -> Database Check (both checked), passed squeaky
clean.

         

        - I ran Tools -> Update DRC, resulting in "No DRC errors
detected".

         

        - I ran "Update DRC" from Drawing Options window, Status tab,
also resulting in "No DRC errors detected".

         

        - I got out of Allegro, got back in, then I repeated the above.

         

        Anyone ever see this one?  In all my years using this tool, I've
never seen the DRC errors stay "Out Of Date" after updating.

         

        Thanks for any help!

         

        Gary
