    I think you need to open Setup>Constraints>Modes...

    Then select Design For Assembly>PkgToPkg Spacing

    Then enable Package to package spacing

    OK, I have 2 different licenses:

    it works for me using 'Allegro PCB Designer'

    it does not work for me using 'OrCAD PCB Designer Standard'

    However I don't know what features are included with your Allegro PCB artist license, sorry Disappointed
