Pick and Place (Body center) not existe in OrCAD X Presto

Hello,

The "Export Placement Body Center" function does not exist in OrCAD X Presto.
Each time, I have to open PCB Editor to export the Body Center.

For your information, the Pik and Place Body Center is the most requested format by EMS providers.

Thank you,
Nizar

    Hi Jeet,

    I asked Artedas France about this at the beginning of the year. They told me it was sent to Cadence, but I thought it would be implemented with OrCAD X 25 apparently, that’s not the case :/

    Judging by how Orcad and Allegro seems to work, we'll get the feature around 2030 ;)  When Altium started to really update their tool around the 2020, they had updates and fixes like every second week at some points.  Cadence should really up their game here.  

    I was told many many times that 25 would be an amazing and ground breaking update....  I was expecting things like an ENV file for Presto, functionality approaching the legacy tool and common things like zoom and pan that work the SAME in the schematic and pcb tools.

    Like why don't we have something so simple like zoom and pan being totally different within all the tools? Just weird!  It's like jumping in a time machine every time I open these tools ;) haha
