Use this page of the Wizard to select the types of files you want to import into Altium Designer. The Import Wizard can be used to import the following types of design files:Īllegro binary PCB (*.brd), Allegro ASCII PCB (*.alg)ĬADSTAR Schematic Archive (*.csa), CADSTAR PCB Archive (*.cpa), CADSTAR Part Library (*.lib)ĬircuitMaker 2000 Schematics and LibrariesĬircuitMaker Schematics (*.ckt), CircuitMaker User Libraries (*.lib), CircuitMaker Device Libraries (*.lib) Click Finish to close the Import Wizard. This option is available only on the final page of the Wizard.Click Next to navigate to the next screen.Click Back to navigate to the previous screen.Click Cancel to close the Import Wizard.The Import Wizard is launched by clicking File » Import Wizard from the main menus. Enable the required functionality in the Importers\Exporters region of this page. This accesses the Configure Platform page that presents the core feature set for the software and is identical in content to that found on the Select Design Functionality page of the Altium Designer Installer. From the Installed page, click the Configure control at the top-right of the Platform region. The core design functionality for your installation can be modified at any time after installation and directly from within the Extensions & Updates view ( DXP » Extensions and Updates).
#Protel 99se to orcad install
So best answer, as you can get access to both softwares for test directly for yourself.To make use of the importer technologies available in Altium Designer, you must install the relevant functionality as part of the Altium Designer Platform itself. Orcad capture might be a clumsy tool but it gets the job done and has done so for many years. If DXP was all things to all people they would have dropped promoting and marketing 99SE as soon as DXP was on the shelfs. Really strange that Altium STILL sell and ACTIVELY promote/market P99SE sales as well as DXP at the same time. You can still trash a netlist even with sp3pr2, have a board trashed due to DRC bugs especially in power planes, and common jobs that take <10 secs in 99SE take 10x that in DXP so productivity goes down for the majority of simple everyday functions.įully funcytional, time restricted demos are downloadable for 99SE and DXP directly from the Protel web site, if you want a fair comparison then make a very simple circuit on paper as a test project, try to build it in 99SE making note of time and design process then do exactly the same excercise in DXP. A lot of people do not realise that P99 and P99SE were actually quite different major releases.ĭXP when released was in a WORSE state than P99 was so it is a bigger lemon.ĭXP has great potenential but new users looking at DXP should be WELL WARNED to join the DXP user groups and forums and judge its suitability for themselves by browsing the archives. ddb file is created and it is only usually a 1-2k file size overhead to the project.Īs for DXP, well P99SE was what was created after the lemon known as P99.
#Protel 99se to orcad windows
If you use the windows file system method a single. P99SE is a pretty stable product and you will only have an issue with large files sizes if you use the Access database file storage method and do not regularly compact the database. To DXP or not to DXP, this is a complex question.
