I would like some advice on how to import .brd files into DXP [Copy link]

I have a Cadence 16.6 BRD file. After importing it using the AD13 version Import Wizard, it shows blank. I don’t know what’s going on. Can anyone help me convert it to a format that can be opened by DXP? Thank you!

It may be a software matching problem after importing, or an external size problem. After AD is imported, there is a large blank area. It can be displayed in 3D, and needs to be zoomed in

Is there any way to display it normally? I only need the component packaging and position placement, and I don’t need the wiring. Now I can only see the content shown in the picture when I open it

@qwqwqw2088, could you please help me with this? I am mainly going to use DXP to draw the board. If the component packages cannot be imported, I have to re-package them, which takes too much time: handshake

Because AD software cannot display them in 2D at all. It can barely display them in 3D. It is best to modify the original image in Cadence.

@qwqwqw2088, I also thought about modifying the original drawing. I worked on it for half a day this afternoon, but I don’t know how to copy the components of this file to a new file (I only consider having a package diagram). If I can move all the components of this drawing to a new file, there should be no problem with the external size. Can you help me do this? I have never used Cadence

Try to use AD to modify it.

I can't see it in 3D in AD, let alone modify it.
