Altium Designer 17.1.9 Altium has released an updated Altium Designer 17.1. This release includes enhanced solutions for routing, design rule error reporting, documentation outputs and more. And as with every release, we’re including bug fixes and performance improvements too. Version 17.1.9 Build: 592 Date: 7 November 2017 20989 Data Management - Resolved an issue in which invalid information showed for a component template when using 'Where used' feature. 22190 Data Management - Fixed bug where Symbol and Footprint item revision field were not mapped to schlib and pcblib attribute while the object has been opened via file-less editing. 22336 Data Management - Resolved an issue with a decimal symbol in case of different formats on server/client PC settings (Win7x86 only). 17982 Draftsman - Fixed bug that caused it to not be possible to select some designators on BAV. 18773 Draftsman - Fixed Regression that caused Exception to occur when editing parameters for a document that is not in a project (Free Document). 20998 Draftsman - Added backward compatibility for Draftsman files. 21457 Minimum solder mask sliver rule check was reverted as it works in AD17.0 (BC:1122). 20794 Fixed regression that caused ComponentLinkURL with the page number to call out Error in Schematic. 19354 Fixed bug in Output Job that caused Alternate Part with the same Footprint to destroy BOM when datasource PCB was selected. 19634 Fixed bug that caused Datasheet data to be missed after the update of a component model. 20405 Fixed bug where supplier search does not work when logged in to SolidWorks PCB Services. 20604 Fixed bug that caused missing components after importing from xDxDesigner. 20792 Fixed bug causing rounding issues for 3D models in IDF export. 20798 Fixed bug in PCB where Phantom Drill Pair remains after it is deleted. 20799 Fixed bug that caused components that have alternate part with a different footprint to present both parts in the Pick and Place file for 'No Variations' (BC:7786). 20800 Fixed bug in PCB that caused the Layer Stack Table to not update automatically if layer stack was changed (BC:4619). 20801 Fixed bug that caused inability to generate DWG/DXF output when a ' / ' was used in a file name. About Altium Designer 17.1. Altium Designer 17.1 was tailored specifically for today’s engineer. We understand that industry pressures to build more advanced, more efficient products can oftentimes mean a lag in the technology required to accommodate these demands. Our focus was to address these present-day challenges and fully equip designers with the necessary tools for optimum design. Altium Designer 17.1 is our latest electronics design software that caters to the specific needs of present-day PCB design and electronics engineering professionals, to overcome present-day design challenges. Refocus your energies on cultivating your design, with trusted technology that is fully invested in you, the designer. This update includes enhanced solutions for routing, design rule error reporting, documentation outputs and more. And as with every release, we’re including bug fixes and performance improvements too. See below for details: - DRAFTSMAN ENHANCEMENTS Measure and dimension design objects with precision with a refined workflow. Draftsman enhancements in this release make it easy to add new measurements to PCB design objects and datums without limitation, for a more efficient process. The Draftsman document editor has also had several code optimizations to dramatically improve performance. - OBJECT SPECIFIC KEEPOUTS Avoid manual repositioning and save time by creating object-specific, restricted regions on your board. Altium Designer 17.1 offers full control over object placement to ensure your object types are situated in the designated board regions, and improved data fidelity with keepouts in imported designs. - DRC FLEXIBILITY Selectively suppress DRC warnings and violations when you really do know better. With this feature, you’ll be able to exclude specific DRC errors from future checks to allow work in progress project release in Altium Vault, as well as uninhibited editing, without the risks of disabling an entire rule. About Altium Ltd. Altium LLC. is a multinational software corporation headquartered in San Diego, California, that focuses on electronics design systems for 3D PCB design and embedded system development. Altium products are found everywhere from world leading electronic design teams to the grassroots electronic design community. With a unique range of technologies Altium helps organisations and design communities to innovate, collaborate and create connected products while remaining on-time and on-budget. Products provided are Altium Designer, Altium Vault, CircuitStudio, PCBWorks, CircuitMaker, Octopart, Ciiva and the TASKING range of embedded software compilers.
