I am using allegro PCB editor, 16.2 version, where i placed one footprint of one IC, which was designed by my senior. After placing that footprint, some of the pins are having names already. I want to assign names to some other pins also. So, How can i assign name???
go to pad designer and open that file..there you can edit it.might be your previous footprint not created properly.which tool you use to creat footprint..?
yes yo can give name go to edit and select Package Geometry and select the which ever layer you want..be careful while selecting the layer..

Open that .dra file.Then go to tools->padstack->Modify padstack,right click on it.Edit option comes. then save as by giving proper name.Then again go to tools->Padstack->replace here you select old padstack and below select newpadstack.Then give pin no which you want to replace
