[PCB_FORUM] Re: refresh silkscreen text issue

Raj,

If you are using version 15.7 s037 (v15-7-42BE) then just simply go to 
Place/Update Symbol then select the 0402 and Refresh them all. The deleted 
silk will come back while Allegro leaves others alone.

I had the same problem when I was at 15.5. In stead of working around the 
issue, I called Cadence and they sent out a patch to fix that issue. I 
believe that they then bundled that fix into 15.7. It won't be a bad idea 
to call Cadence to get that patch to fix that problem once and for all.



Thanks and Regards,

[PCB_FORUM] refresh silkscreen text issue






I have 1000 components with package symbol = 0402, in my first revision 
for silkscreen placement I have deleted the violating silkscreen text on 
some of these 0402 components(around 300). Now in my new revision I need 
to bring back the silkscreen for few 0402 components since I have room for 
text placement. If i go for update package symbol checking option 'reset 
symbol text location' then this resets text on all 0402 symbols.. 

I tried the workaround of deleting and placing the components for some 
diodes ( since they r less in number) to bring the text back. Deleting and 
bing back these

anyone has some ideas..please help me out.

Thanks much in advance..
Raj.
