No Net Checker in ExpressPCBPlus? (2 replies)
Paul, unfortunately, you have not missed anything. The Schematic Link that was available in the original ExpressPCB software has not yet been completed for the Plus version. We are planning that for a future release, as we understand a great number of users are seeking that functionality. We have been listening to the requests here and in e-mail.
Thanks
So I have spent the day acquainting myself with ExpressPCBPlus. Lots of great new features; I particularly love that they let you run traces on the internal layers now but tons more improvements as well. It is not without some quirks (you might set layer connections for ALL the pins on your component if you don't carefully mind your selection method) and some things seem a bit more difficult to accomplish than before but that just might be my noobishness on the app. This might be more of the same and I just haven't found it yet but...
I can't find any net checking. In ExpressPCB, you clicked on a pin while tracing or in Net Connections mode and every other pin on that net would light up. EPP has the continuity checking (which admittedly is very cool: love that it lights up the traces! It will make that last pre-order examination MUCH easier). But this is not the same as the net checker. Net Checker told me where I needed to go with my traces. Continuity only becomes useful after (I think) I have gotten there!
Am I missing something - feature buried somewhere I haven't looked? Will the feature return in a future release?
