Compatibility for Allegro Physical Viewer

betachenatnxp
betachenatnxp over 6 years ago

Hi team,

We tried to open the BRD file generated by Allegro PCB Designer version 17.2-2016 S048, but failed. Got the error message as

The viewer is just downloaded from website. The version number is 17.2-2016 S015.

Also tried to open this file with  Allegro PCB Designer 17.2-2016 P028 [3/31/2016], and still failed.

Would you please advise how to resolve this issue? Thank you.

Best regards,

Beta Chen

    The latest download, just downloaded, for the Free Physical Viewer reports the version as 17.2-2016.s048 and this doesn't appear to have any issues when viewing any of the BRD files that I have created with a variety of 17.2-2016 hotfixes and licenses.
