Hi,

I am working with DIPTRACE and  Sprint-Layout 6.0.

Gerber Export from Sprint Layout is o.k.

Gerber Export from DIPTRACE still hangs in Parser.

A sample of Gerber-Export from Diptrace is attached.

May be you have time to look at it.

Kind regard

Hi,

I am not so familiar with the code generation procedures within bitbucket.

However, I downloaded Alpha 4 for WIN yesterday.

Perfect so far, Keep going !!

Kind regards
