Padstack Editor 17.4 problem : Value must be greater than 0 [SOLVED]

Hello !


I have a big problem when creating a padstack using the Padstack Editor 17.4

In the "drill" tab, I cannot enter any numeric data without having the error message: "Value must be greater than 0"

This problem does not appear in version 17.2  padstack editor


For  SMD pad, I have the same problem in configuring the dimensions.

My Cadence version is up to date

Anyone have a solution?

    I also tested as an administrator, as well as different modes of compatibility.
    And I have this problem on 3 PCs (same cadence version same W10)

    Can you open and save a padstack from the installation folder C:\Cadence\SPB_17.4\share\pcb\pcb_lib\symbols ?

    In your picture the padstack editor looks to have an IP-Address specified at the top of the window. Are you doing things locally or via a network ?.
