The 2004 release of Expedition when in DFL mode (which replaces DestinyRE) has a 'File>Save Project' which is essentially a save-as command ________________________________ From: Julian Ungureanu [mailto:jungurea@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, September 23, 2004 8:04 AM To: icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Re: Mentor Expedition to Allegro camparison Expedition (and Destiny) don't have a similar command like "Save as" in Allegro.. Just copy the *.pcb file then try to open it. It'll complain at first but you'll get it opened. -- Thanks, Julian "Opinions expressed are strictly my own and not necessarily those of Cisco Systems, Inc."

Even these are single indivu files. In mentor I dont think this type of 'save as' options is there. The .pcb files are linked to many other folders like library and so. Anyone know how to 'save as' in mentor?

Usability comes to mind. Number of settings available. Planes processing. DRC checking. It seemed I could never get the rules set up so I wouldn't have to change them somewhere along the design. Although Mentor also has a few in their own right, I used the expedition tool for 3.5 years and found myself continually saying "In allegro this would be easy..."
