Import files, made with Altium Designer?

Former Member

Is Circuit Studio compatible with Altium Designer?

In other words: can I import files, designed with Altium Designer, modify these files, and export back to Altium Designer?

    You can take files fro CS to AD, but not back the other way.

    Darren is correct. I think the answer lies in capabilities of CS having less than AD. Make sense if you think that way, right eavb?

    We have been paying very close attention to the feedback from the evaluators, our initial customers, feedback via e14 support personnel, and these forums. It is with this feedback that developed v1.1 of CircuitStudio and you can expect to see this released in mid-May.

     

    Along with the typical maintenance one should expect for this product, we are adding the capabilities I’ve listed below to the toolset. Please know that your participation in these forums greatly assists us in getting the product fine tuned.

     

    Here is what’s coming in May to CircuitStudio:

     

    -       - Importers Updated – Altium Designer 10 and Older PCB files, Protel, and PCAD (these are in addition to Eagle/PADs/OrCAD/and current Altium Designer Support)

    -       - Mixed Mode Simulation

    -       - .STEP Export

    -       - DXF Import

    Hi,

    I have the new version 1.1 of Circuit Studio and I cannot import DXF files. When I try to import a file, in the generated documents,I get the following error ".ERROR: Exception raised! Class not registered". What does it mean that?. In the new version 1.1 is supposed it is possible to import DXF files.

    So any idea which is the problem?

    Regards

    Javier

    Class not registered under Windows means an install problem for product. Did you uninstall the previous version before installing the new one?
