I have inquired to cadence about this issue. And have submitted request for them to look at incorporating this into their software. We achieve panelization by exporting a IDF (PTC) file from allegro for use in PRO/Engineer. After importing this into Pro/Engineer We add the necessary webs and tabs etc. It is a fairly easy process. After consulting with the fab house they prefer to have this information in the odb++ file that we send them, but unfortunately since allegro doesn't allow this they create their step and repeat in accordance with our drawing. We have developed a good relationship with our fab houses in order to determine the max panel size / board ratio etc. Shannon K.
