Any 17.4 users out there?

redwire over 5 years ago

Just downloaded it but don't have the time to install and test. Anyone tried it out? What's new about it that you like?

Have to find time to drop in a new license file with IT and 17.4 databases are not backwards compatible with 17.2. But, 17.4 has a "compatibility mode" that keeps 17.2 data in 17.2. Nice.

This was described to me as an internal cleanup and revamp of the UI that reduces the risk of another Microsoft update breaking their stuff.

The new 3D mechanical step transparency option will get a lot of use. EMA has a 17.4 webinar coming up that will give an overview of everything.

There is a downrev command (Export - More - Downrev) which will take you back to 17.2. The Design Sync between Capture and PCB is very cool and much more intuitive. New Via Arrays command in PCB which is cool also.
