In conversations I had with customers and prospects during breaks, or after the seminar, the discussions hit every new feature.\u00a0\u00a0 Many customers wanted to discuss the advancements made in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/schematic-design?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">xDxDesigner<\/a>. One longtime customer made the comment \u201c<em>this in no way resembles Viewdraw anymore<\/em>\u201d! Others wanted to know more about the library work done in PADS VX, from the new <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/library-management\/?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Starter Library to the Central Library<\/a> for storing and managing there libraries. These features got the attention of the engineering and CAD managers, as well as librarians in attendance. I also had some interesting conversation with attendees on the new spreadsheet based <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/constraint-management?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Constraint Manager<\/a>. Those that had very highly constrained designs clearly saw the advantage of being able to create, modify, and view their constraints in a spreadsheet.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/multimedia\/redefining-productivity--faster--smarter--pads?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PADS VX release<\/a>, check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pads.com\/pads-advantage?cmpid=9049\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pads.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Jim<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mike Griesbach, the PADS Product Line Director, and I had the pleasure of traveling the globe conducting a worldwide seminar&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16541,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spanish_translation":"","french_translation":"","german_translation":"","italian_translation":"","polish_translation":"","japanese_translation":"","chinese_translation":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"industry":[],"product":[],"coauthors":[],"class_list":["post-2984","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2984","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16541"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2984"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2984\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10406,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2984\/revisions\/10406"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2984"},{"taxonomy":"industry","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/industry?post=2984"},{"taxonomy":"product","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?post=2984"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sw.siemens.com\/electronic-systems-design\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=2984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
