Need to call Schematic BOM attributes in the layout

Hussain Aalim

Hi,

I want to call Schematic attributes in layout (Allegro). Currently I have modified “allegro.cfg” file under section [ComponentInstanceProps]. I have added all the fields here which I need to call in layout (see snap below).

The problem is that there is one field name as “Manufacturer P/N” which we are using as a standard in our library. In layout the issue I am facing is that this column name contains Special Character such as (Space and /) and when I import the netlist with this column name it stops as Allegro does not supports the special characters.

I would be thankful if someone can provide any solution for renaming or any script that can copy all the field data and changes the column name or is there any way that I can use with the special characters in the layout(Allegro).

Regards
