Re: Run PartQuest from within PADS Layout DX.1

Please try opening PADS Layout from Start > Programs > PADS VX.1 (32-bit) > Latyout & Routing > PADS Layout VX.1 rather than using any desktop icons. If PADS is started from a custom shortcut or from a pinned taskbar icon while the program was running this can cause the error you are seeing.  PADS Layout needs to be launched so that the "wrapper" utility makes it aware of environment variable items like the WDIR directory.  Please see technote MG586027 for more information:  https://supportnet.mentor.com/portal?do=reference.technote&id=MG586027

 

If you would like to create a desktop icon or shortcut pinned to the Task bar do the following:

  1. Go to Start > Programs > PADS[version] > Layout and Routing
  2. Right mouse click on the entry for PADS Layout, choose Send To from the pop-up menu and select Desktop (Create Shortcut)
  3. If you would like PADS Layout pinned to the task bar drag the newly created desktop icon onto the task Bar while PADS is not running
