[PCB_FORUM] Re: x,y location

Use the allegro file viewer.
I tried this right after I saw the suggestion because
I didn't think it worked. Now I know better.
Just go to file> file viewer..., find the file to open
and click on the coords and, amazing! It works.

Do you have a bunch of coordinates to go thru? Make a text file with the
coordinates (or a log file that has x-y locations, maybe a DRC report) and
you can view that in Allegro; select (hilight) the coordinate you're after
and with Version 15 it will automatically zoom there. Pretty convenient!
:)

Good day.


What do you mean?
To go to a particular location zoom in kinda far and use
zoom center with coordinates. I don't understand what
you mean by "find".
