Cross Section Editor impedance calculator missing in 17.2?

PaoloUoB

Good morning,

we recently upgraded our license from Allegro 16.4 to 17.2 and I am familiarizing with the new UI.

I cannot find the impedance calculator tool that used to be in the cross section editor.
In the old version, we had something like shown in this video (min 3.58): the two check boxes allowed to show the single ended and differential impedance calculator.

In the new version all I can see is the window in the attached picture, and no option to calculate the impedance.

I have tried to switch the editor, enabling all the available packages (high speed, Analog/RF, Design Planning) but still no luck.
The curios thing is that on this other video the option seems to be there.
Am I missing something? Is this feature now part of a different license/package?

Any help would be appreciated.

Paolo

    Double-click on the "Signal Integrity>>" header cell to expand and show all of the Signal Integrity parameters.
