Many of you already received communications about the move of the Cadence user community into cadence.com. And many of you have already joined, with over 4000 registrations in the first two weeks.

The new Cadence Community enhances the ability of Cadence users to connect and collaborate. In addition to moving the community into cadence.com -- enabling single sign-on for community, Sourcelink and Cadence events -- the new site is organized around nine technology segments, giving you easy access to product information, training, forums and blogs. Some of the new features include:
  • Ability to respond to posts via e-mail
  • Technology-specific blogs
  • Latest Web 2.0 social networking capabilities
  • Public profile options
  • Private messaging
  • Friends lists
Visit the new Cadence Community today at www.cadence.com/community and join the discussions!

Registration note: Due to the scope of the enhancements and the new SSO registration system, we were not able to migrate existing cdnusers.org member accounts. So new registrations are required, but this enables a broader set of functionality we think you'll enjoy.

Forum note: Under the guidance of forum moderators, we have taken the 20+ cdnusers.org forums and consolidated them into 11 forums on the new site. Posts have been brought over so you can leverage that posting history. CDNusers forums will be set to read only starting 7/30, and cdnusers.org will be redirected to the new community on 8/4.

Best regards,
Mike and Tom

Select Hilight command
Select the colour you wish to use
In the find filter "Find By Name section"

Set the selection criteria to "Net" and "Name"
Type DUMMY in the Fillin to the right of the ">" then hit the TAB key

All DUMMY nets will be hilighted

Script that will perform the required action

setwindow pcb
trapsize 105
generaledit
hilight
setwindow form.find
FORM find name_type Net
FORM find find_name DUMMY
setwindow pcb
trapsize 110

Sorry, that script was created using 16.

16 has several application modes which are used for pre-selection (Choose the element to be worked on and then the command) which provide an environment in which commands used frequently in a particular task domain, such as etch editing, are readily accessible from right mouse button pop-up menus, based on a selection set of design elements you have chosen.

General-edit application mode lets you perform editing tasks, including place and route, as well as moving, copying, or mirroring, for example.

Etch-edit application mode customizes your environment to perform etch-editing tasks such as adding and sliding connections, delay tuning, and smoothing cline or cline segment angles, for example.

Comment out, using a "#" sign in the begining of the line or delete the general edit line

Again, sorry if that confused you.
