Circular Shape PCB Board on 3D viewer

cajesl
cajesl over 3 years ago

Hi everybody,

I'm using Orcad PCB Design Standard to make a circular PCB.

I have a problem when I try to see the 3D of my board. It's always a retangular shape in Allegro 3D Canvas.

Do someone know how to fix it ?

Normally my outline is in the rigth layer (Board geometry->outline).

Thank you!

    You are using the wrong layer for you outline. Try Board Geometry / Design_Outline.
