Schematic
47754 The properties of an alternate (varied) part are now displayed (as read-only) in the Properties panel when that alternate part is selected on the schematic. (BC:9295)
48909 Toggling the visibility of pin parameters would reset their location to default. (BC:15630)
49033 Component Pins tab of the Properties panel would not sort by Name, only by Pin number. (BC:17409)
49037 It was not possible to configure the default visibility of Sheet Entry cross-references to not visible.
PCB
47088 Dragging the center handle on a polygon edge would not always remove that edge when it was redundant.
47241 Delays on start/finish of diff pair routing when working with a PCB stored in OneDrive have been resolved.
48666 Attempting to move a component with the mouse that was failing the component clearance rule would not show an online rule violation, even though one existed.
48995 Outline detection was sometimes failing when the shape included a combination of arcs and tracks.
49134 After dragging and dropping a 3D model from the Explorer panel onto a footprint open for editing, and then placing a pad, a warning that the component could not be saved because a command was already active would appear when attempting to save. This no longer occurs. (BC:17421)
49245 The PCB.ComponentSelection advanced option was not being applied, component selection was always using the contents of the Courtyard layer type.
49247 When the PCB.ComponentSelection advanced option was set to mode 2, only the contents of the Courtyard layer type were being used for selection, instead of Courtyard + 3D Body Objects + Silk + Copper layers.
49494 A new option to 'Merge regions and pads inside Footprint' has been added to the Gerber Setup dialogs. With this option enabled, regions within a footprint will be merged with pads during generation of Gerber outputs.
Draftsman
46970 Certain custom scale values would display incorrectly.
47454 Certain primitives and views would be missing from a PDF generated from Draftsman, and the PDF would open with errors. (BC:17261)
47564 The size of the Board Realistic View changed after importing changes from the PCB.
48547 Draftsman now supports setting different symbol sizes for the Drill Table and the Drill Drawing (Drill Symbol Configurations dialog & Preferences dialog). (BC:16594)
Platform
49211 Help menu entries were not always taking the reader to the correct website.
Data Management
47849 Numerous improvements made to the Components panel, helping simplify the process of moving from file-based components to managed components.
48227 Numerous usability improvements made to the Library Migrator, including feedback аbout: conflicting parameters, model checking, empty folder paths, and other areas.
48748 Fixed a typo in the 'Part Choice Migration' dialog.
48838 The Library Migrator would not always indicate the reason a component failed to import. The validator has been improved to provide more details.
48877 Fixed typos in the 'Location of project files has changed' dialog. (BC:17788)
49195 Project Releaser would fail without providing details when generating output, if the design included an error such as components with mismatched sch/PCB pins.
49429 After editing multiple components in the Batch Component Editor, user-defined pin mapping definitions were deleted.
49630 The Explorer panel was not presenting the aspect views (for browsing detailed data) for a selected item revision when using the panel's Search view.
Import/Export
49375 Corrected typo in the PADS Import Wizard. (BC:18089)
Simulation
46095 Support added to use a file-based PWL source. Set the Stimulus Type to File, then specify the path+filename in the Source's File parameter (eg C:\Designs\Circuit Simulation\Analog Amplifier\PWL_test.csv).
46193 Attempting to open the simulation model for a component placed from a DbLib would result in an access violation. (BC:15888)
