Undefined Flash symbols

HSID

I am trying to create gerbers for my design.

I keep recieving and undefined flash symbol error message and cannot create the gerbers.

In my aperture list I see the flash symbol that the tool says is undefined.

If I try to refresh my shapes and flash symbols to see if this corrects the problem the flash symbol name is not listed even though it shows up in the actual aperture list.

How can I get the flash symbol listed under shapes and flash symbols under the place menu?

Online I see a flash_convert command to try.

How do i run this command, I use Allegro Pcb editor version 17.2

Thanks

    Edit your padstacks until you find the padstack that has the 'flash symbol' embedded in it. Once you find it you can determine if it's necessary or not. If not, change it to 'null'. If it is needed you'll need to make (or find) the suitable flash symbol and add it to the library.
