Hi
I am having trouble getting the PI to boot. It has done, once but now refuses to boot and there is no activity on the ACT light, where there was before. I have tried reflashing the uSD card with the correct image using balenaEtcher.
Have tried another power supply same result.
Any ideas?
Matthew Hi,
Ive just opened Designspark, and it will not let me proceed to my drawings? It has an activation screen, which says enter your account details or register. I registered in 2015? Why is this happening now?
Please see attached picture
If I try entering my account details, I get the following
Hi
I have just started getting problems with generating manufacturing gerber files. This is something I have never had a problem with previously.
What started happening was that the gerber generator was taking much longer than normal to complete and when the output files were checked in a gerber viewer the layers were corrupt. The tracks and pads being faintly outlined with the remainder of the board still showing copper.
Having looked at the problem for hours I have found the work around which may be of help to anyone experiencing the problem until it is fixed.
Output -> Manufacturing plots -> AutoGen plots -> Sellect Setting tab
then for each layer in turn toggle the Pads-Only tick box
Then run as normal and this time it will be fast and produce gerbers that look correct in the viewer
Hope this helps if you are having this problem now, and for the developers to find and fix it. Dear,
Can you please tell me if there is a way to make large polygon shapes that involve multiple pads as can be seen in attached file? The current in the outside traces for example can go as high as 10A.Thanks for your insights.RegardsAlain Hellow everyone, I am a user of Design Spark Electrical, I am unable to insert and open 3D component to design spark. Tell me how to insert and open 3D component to Designspark. STEPファイルを取り込んで利用していたら、気づいた時には、その取り込んだものがストラクチャーツリーにて図のように表示されます。これはどういった意味なのか。また通常のコンポーネントの表示に変える方法はないのでしょうか? ストラクチャーツリー上でコンポーネントなっている物がパーツ番号が表示されず、またバルーン自動生成においても何も表示されない原因が分かりません。 3d view does not include the components on the board only an image of the pcb, silkscreen and lands and it has been like that since version 10, version 9 did work correctly. Howdy
I found on the web something called "TL Smoother" for stepper motors. What is it and how does it work? I am thinking about adding one to a current design. If I do add it I need to use smd 1N5404 diodes. Does anyone know the part number for these smd diodes?
Hi, I'm new with designspark pcb and I like to put some SMT components to the bottom side of my pcb. In the forum I saw that you have to use the "f" to flip, but that flips the component on the toplayer and not from top to bottom layer.
Can somebody help me.
Thanks Salve,
ho aggiornato il software DS Electrical. Prima riuscivo a fare 15 pagine di schema ora solo 3. come posso ampliare il numero di pagine? Grazie

Hi,
I have updated the DS Electrical software. Before I was able to make 15 diagram pages now only 3. how can I increase the number of pages? Thank you dear communiy,
i want design or draw a spiral that is similar to the drawing first part.
how i can draw this with design spark? maybe also a possibility that the spiral from volume will be bigger?
can anybody helps me how do to that?
thank you so much
many greets Hello, there,
we are switching to DS Electrical V2 now (from v1.3) and we cannot find the "Terminal strips" button in the "Project -> Management" category.
It was a crucial feature for us to know how many connection points were made to each terminal group without manually counting them. This was also visible in the terminal symbol properties tab before.
How to get this count in V2?
I have been using DSE for years now and today for the first time as I can remember I was asked for my login credentials (had to look them up) entered them in and I keep getting -Unkown Error- I reset password twice and still the same issue. Can someone point me in the right direction at least to get my drawings on file out. Hi!
I have created two symbols and whenever I want to draw a wire to that symbol, the last wire segment gets deleted when I hit the connection point.
I can create them sometimes by drawing them at an angle or very short.But as soon as I want to draw any meaningful connections, the wire gets deleted.
What am I doing wrong??
Cheers, M.New Posts
