Allegro does not show the measurement dialog box

shatwood

Hi there!

 

I am usign OrCAD PCB Allegro, in former times it allways showed the "show measurement(alt+F4)" dialog box.

Since this morning it does not appear, has anyone har a problem like this?

I've used windows+tab to scroll to all open windows, but it does not show up.

 

regards

     Hi.

    If you used Allegro previously with dual monitors and now your using a single monitor the GUI might still be opening on the second screen. 

    Locate your PCBENV folder and delete the allegro.geo file. reopen Allegro and see if the GUI comes back.

    You might have more luck with Display>Measure, or shift+F4, the Alt+F4 shortcut is reserved by Windows.
