    WHat are the parameters for using PSSA?
    when I tray to generate code I'm getting a 1 kb file with very little in it, should be lots.
    All my parts and area are a componant, is this wrong.
    Could someone line me (and others) on the proper procedure and can and cannot do?, please??
    Thank you.

    After setting your parameters for PS, (the first PS icon) to the settings in pic #1 just click the "Safe Area" icon once and a dotted line rectangle with your settings in the right hand corner will appear as in pic #2. Just position the rectangle around the parts you want code generated for and click one more time to drop the SA rectangle.

    Everything outside this area will be ignored when code is generated.

    Hope this helps. Attached files [​IMG] [​IMG]

    RC, I think your problem is that you are making your parts 'components'. Once you have applied the PS to your parts 'group' them in the order that you want them to be cut out. There is no need to group all the groups afterwards, just make sure the groups of parts are within the PSSA. The PS will not recognise 'components', only 'groups'.

    Hope this helps.
    Si.

    Side note, do note make the PSSA into a group/componant, doesn't like it...
