Component location export to BoM

RSYED
RSYED over 3 years ago

I'm using Capture 17.4 and in the past I would be able to backannotate/sync to pull in component side/location information (i.e. top or bottom) from layout to capture.
I could subsequently export that information to my BOM. Does anyone have any insight on how to do this in 17.4?

Thanks!

    Try adding a property PCB_MIRROR in allegro.cfg file and then do PCB -> Update Schematic from capture. It should work for you.

    Where should that be nested with in the CFG? Component definition or component instance?
