Re: protel dxp Questions

1. try changing your graphics card drivers. or goto windows display setup/advanced and change the hardware acceleration to none. not advisable but will tell you where the prob is.

2. go to file/fabrication outputs/final (or whatever) and then right click/configuration. you can set what you like. also consider setting up an .outjob file to set all you default prints and gerber/bom etc in one place

3. ?? like a zero ohm link? just draw a new component in sch/pcb lib editor like a resistor and call in 0r0 or similar.

4. of course! just draw it how you want and save it. then goto file panel/new from existing template and select your file.

regards
