Exporting unrouted (ratsnest) pcb's having parts placed in .dsn format


KrengelRFDesign

 As I'm using DS PCB as a new and free solution to design pcb's

there is missing an urgently needed function:

 

A possiblilty to export an unrouted but part placed board i.e. to a shape orientated

auto-router like Electra. As I'm using that routers since the beginning

of EDA software on PC's in the middle of the 1980s, its a pitty not having that export function

(file format/extension is .dsn) implemented in DSPCB.

 

 

It would be not only a "nice to have" rather than a MUST to get

high speed 12-layer boards auto-routed and optimized under industrial

EMC standards.

 

What do you think?

Is it possible to add this feature very soon?

If not, why not write an extern utility to convert?

 

 

Thanks a lot and thanks in advance
