Have had a request from a customer who wants to use component reference designators of 6 or more charactors. They have a good reason for this from a design point of view but it becomes a problem at manufacture. Our machine (also MRP system) only allo

Hello all, we are using Circuitcam for all our internal records and programming our production machines. When I auto assign labels for my reference designators, machine will create designators with different sizes(some of them are too small to see i
