This issue is not DxDesigner issue. The issue is Cadence's "third party
netlist in" it will only pass certain attributes to Allegro. The spec.
Section 7 of the Allegro users Guide hasn't changed as long as I've been
using Allegro. The only way around the cross probing that I know is a
product from OHIO Design Automation.

For those of you interested, here are the questions I asked Mentor, and
the
answers they gave me:
Q: Is there a datasheet available for the DxDesigner to Allegro
interface?
A: No, we do not have a datasheet for this option.
Could you please get these questions answered about this interface as
well:
1) Does it support crossprobing
A: No.
2) Does it support decal preview
A: No.
3) Can you use the DxDesigner Attributes Manager for entering/modifying
constraints
A: Yes.
4) What attributes does it pass to Allegro
A: We don't have a list of the constraints/attributes. However, we
have
many customers using DxDesigner very successfully with Allegro.
Keep in mind, they charge $2500 for this, and it appears it does little
more
than produce a netlist. Something that can be done by converting the
PADS
output...
Regards,
Austin
