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

Hi Friends,

Is any possibilities to find Static shapes in the board file ?

In the shape report it gives only the dynamic shape report.  Is any scripts for this ?

Thanks & Regards

If you wanted to visually see the static shapes you could do the following

1. Enable the boundary color for the dynamic shapes. Make it a colour such as red. Do not have red as a defined etch subclass colour.
2. In Display >Colour Priority make red the top colour. This will redraw the screen with red being drawn last. The shapes that are outlined in red will be dynamic and those with an outline will be the colour of your etch subclass.

The summary drawing report, in the etch statistics section, will list the number of shapes on each etch layer. You could compare that with the dynamic report.

There isn't a report that will just give you the static shapes.
