PCB Footprint Expert 2022.03 Pro

Added ability to measure between objects
FP Designer:
- Reordering pins in the Calculator disables pins when moving to FP Designer
- Grid space and show settings are now saving to registry
- Added a "Save and Close" button to the Pad Stack Manager
- When manually placing pads on a grid, added the ESC key to exit the add pin process
Options:Changed UI text Pad Stack Rules to SMD Pad Stack Rules
Library Editor:Deleting columns in a FPX file threw a Handled Exception Error when adding new parts
CAD Interfaces:
Altium:The IPC Density Level Suffix was not added to the end of the Footprint Name
Allegro/OrCAD PCB:The Save My Settings feature wouldn't work for Place 3D STEP Models via Script
3D STEP:
- Fixed an Exception thrown for molded body TH and certain other parts due to step color error
- LED's - Chip, Molded Body, Side Concave: changing the LED color changed the pin 2 color
Calculators:
SOP, QFP, Side Concave, SON, SOJ:The automatic Pin 1 Dot Size was not adhering to the rule setup for all the other component families
SOT-23:Changing the pin names to Alpha characters were not saving to FPX
Chip:LED did not have Alphanumeric pin names
Grid Array Packages - BGA, PGA, LGA, CGAThe silkscreen outline was hatched and changed to full outline
Added:
Ability to open a user option file (.opt) based on a command line entry. How to use:
- Right-click on the 'Footprint Expert' shortcut and select 'Properties'
- In the 'Target' option, after the Footprint Expert path (ending with ".exe"), add a space and one of the following
- If the file is located in the program directory, enter a quote (") followed by the name of the option file, quote (") or
- Quote (") followed by the full path to the desired option file, quote (")
Similarly, a library file can be automatically loaded use the same approach:
- In the 'Target' option, after the Footprint Expert path (ending with ".exe"), add a space and one of the following
- If the file is located in the program directory / Libraries directory, enter a quote (") followed by the name of the library file, quote (") or
- Quote (") followed by the full path to the desired library file, quote (")
Both can be used as long as separated by a 'space'

PCB Libraries is a culmination of decades of work,first started in 2003 with the bold vision of developing a "One World Standard PCB Footprint". CAD library solutions developed by PCB Libraries has been used by over one hundred thousand PCB designers and engineers world-wide. The latest and greatest "PCB Footprint Expert" is designed to eliminate a vast amount duplication of effort wasted by - footprints and 3D models.
PCB Libraries solutions streamline significant parts of the PCB design process with its CAD LEAP (Libraries Enhanced with Automated Preferences) technology, which supports 23 CAD formats with Footprints, 3D STEP models, and (soon) Schematic Symbols. The Library Expert can automatically create tens of millions of intelligent parts which can be batch-updated with dozens of user-defined settings (rotation, pad shapes, tolerance, line widths, etc). PCB Libraries is led by veteran technologists and provides enterprise-level library solutions to many household-name companies throughout the world.[/center]

PCB Footprint Expert Overview
This video is a high-level overview of how the PCB Footprint Expert can be used in combination with our "Parts on Demand" database to automatically generate high quality footprints and 3D models. This video was created using the Altium and 3D STEP outputs (each licensed separately).
PCB Libraries was started in 2003as a sole proprietorship and was based on a couple of decades worth of work. We developed simple scripts to automate the creation of PCB libraries. Our scripts caught on very quickly, and we incorporated in 2004. The LP Wizard we developed over 12 years ago has for the most part remained unchanged after getting acquired in 2008 by Valor. Valor was later acquired by Mentor Graphics.
Since the acquisition, support for most CAD formats other than (understandably) Mentor Graphics' own was either dropped or significantly reduced. The original PCB Libraries team regrouped in 2011, with bigger and more ambitious goals. We rewrote the IPC Calculator code from scratch, keeping it more agile and easy to upgrade. We also developed new PCB library creation features to improve ways of calculating and generating PCB libraries.
In addition to the PCB Footprint Expert, we are also pursuing goals to develop a much more comprehensive online database of all component manufacturer part numbers for creation of high quality PCB libraries, in every major CAD tool format.
