Allegro hangs when trying to edit vias in CM

pmillett
pmillett 3 days ago

When I try and edit the via list in CM by double clicking on the via list, Allegro hangs. Sometimes it comes back in a minute, sometimes not. It doesn't matter what PCB is open - even if I create a new blank PCB, it hangs.

Any ideas why?

Otherwise opening and editing a PCB works fine.

Thanks in advance!

    I've noticed it as well on 17.4, but not on 17.2.

    Sometimes it can take minutes to change a via. 

    I have not found a solution. I am replying so I stay in the loop of this thread.

    Good to know I'm not crazy :) I'm almost to the point of re-installing Allegro...
