Fanout missing in OrcadX Presto

Malokani

Hi There,

There is license feature miss match between PCB Editor and OrcadX presto (Standard License). I have standard OrCAD-X license and HF03 installed on my PC. I can see in the PCB editor a Fanout is available, however, the same feature is not available in the OrCAD-x presto. If i want to have Fanout then I need to open board into PCB editor finish fanout job and then reopen it in OrCAD-x Presto. It is very time consuming going frequently between two editors i.e PCB Editor and Presto. Can someone look into this and can please let me know how I can access Fanout in OrCAD-x Presto.

I do not think that in Presto editor this Fanout feature should be part of the professional license.  As it is available in PCB Editor Standard License there might be something that i am missing. Also available in KiCAD and other low end third party PCB editors.

Looking forward to hear from you soon.

Below i have attached image from the PCB Editor. All feature of the Fanout and Via structures are available in PCB Editor standard.

Regards

Abdul
