QuickAlign "center" to "edge-center" deprecated in Layout 6.1.7?

dontpanic

Hello (again)! I recently switched to IC 6.1.7, and now I am unable to get the QuickAlign layout command to align the center point of an object to the "edge center" of another object (as I could easily do in IC 6.1.6). Moreover, when I press F3, the dialog I get for the QuickAlign command options looks rather different (i.e. many less options) than the one shown in the documentation. Do I need to configure/activate something somewhere else? or maybe it is broken due to an incompatibility with my design kit with this new version?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Cheers,

Jorge.

    Exactly!!! That's what I am talking about! That small edge that would allow (whenever the point in the origin object is the centerpoint, I think) to align only in the X or Y dimensions, leaving the other unaffected. I guess then it is some kind of bug in IC617. Could you please also confirm if the F3-options and context menus that you get are like the ones I am seeing?

    Thanks,

    Jorge.
