PCB editor not showing every component

rahulbirari

 I've created a schematic in Orcad after assigning footprint to every component (which are stored in the same root directory : pcb_lib/symbols/), I performed DRC and Net-list with zero error and warnings. After opening the board with Allegro PCB editor, Only few components are available for the manual placing, I'm not able to see every component as in the schematic.

I took following steps to rectify this problprojectem
1. Rechecked every assigned footprint
2. Recreated project performed DRC, Netlist.
3. Checked every custom footprint.

But problem still exists, what should possibly be going wrong. Please Help!

     Try a Place - Manual then click on Hide and then single click the part in Capture and move (not click and drag) yoru mouse to PCB. The part if vaild should be attached to your mouse. If it's not look at the command line in PCB Editor for any warnings / errrors (Like padstack missing etc).
