Each area contains a wealth of new features aimed at improving productivity and streamlining the design process, ensuring that users can continue creating innovative designs with ease.”
New in Version 28, a Few Highlights:
- Application Enhancements: The updated user interface includes a new 'flat' look, improved toolbars, and the addition of a Utilities menu to simplify the design experience and increase productivity.
- Library Management and Creation: Enhanced tools for library creation and editing now include support for .epl format files, improved symbol editing, and access to over 15 million ready-to-use components.
- Design and Editing: Powerful new features like flip vertical mode, rotate around center, and text cutout creation for copper layers make designing faster and more intuitive.
- Design Checking and Integrity: Upgraded geometry checks and a reorganized DRC dialog ensure more accurate and stable designs.
- Plotting and Manufacturing: New tools for drill ident creation, automatic plot generation, and enhanced via handling allow for more seamless manufacturing.
Designers using Version 28 will benefit from full compatibility with the latest versions of Windows (10 and 11), access to over 15 million components through the Component Search Engine and over 10 million components via SnapMagic, continued support from a dedicated technical team, and access to supplementary component libraries.
