Hi

 

On this hilite subject. I sometimes bring up 2 copies of Allegro on the
same computer. I hilite a net or 

pin in one and it automatically highlights in the other window. Is there
a way to turn this behavior off?

 

Thanks

 

Dave

That function changed in 15.2.  If you want to go back to the 14.2
behavior, add the following line to your project .cpm file:

 

RETAIN_PREVIOUS_HILITE 'ON'

This needs to be placed between the START_CONCEPTHDL and END_CONCEPTHDL
directives.

         Hi Folks, 
        In the not to distant past if I highlighted a hand full of
components in Allegro they would ALL highlight in Concept. Now for 
        some reason only the last one picked or that it finds in the
window that I selected is highlighted in the schematic. This is 
        a great way to be sure that I placed all of the parts in a
particular circuit. 
          Is there a env setting that I need to change? Some setting in
Concept that I'm unaware of? 
         Concept 15.2    25 jan 05 
         Allegro 15.2 s059 
        
         Thanks
