We are pleased to announce the 9.10 release of the ParCAM EXT Family of Products.

This version looks to the future as we increase processing speed, simplify your processes with Auto Label and Mirror/Rotate/Scale enhancements, and address industry trends toward high layer jobs. Some highlights of version 9.10 include:

High Layer Count — Editing supports up to 999 manufacturing layers, for a total of 1022 unique graphical layers.

Netlist Extract and Adjacency Calculation Speed Enhancements — Testing showed these processes ran 2.4 to 4.2 times faster than 9.00, depending upon the data.

Editor Enhancements and New Features:

Unpick Tool – enables you to undo the previously picked features in any order.
Pick Filter Tool – improved filtering of polygons at any orientation or rotation.
Mirror/Rotate/Scale — new options simplify placement of the transformed features, and give control over the scaling of polygons.
