Mike, I had the same comment about being in a project, why oh why does it have to be this way? The option does not become available until you create a project and move the PCB into it. Additionally I asked about a hierarchal tree of commands based upon whatever one was working on, never got a response. These types of issues are why I have in the past to switch companies out of the competitor products and into P992. Seems this type of feature and thinking may have a place and time but with more companies going to a contract workforce, and spending lots of time getting them up to speed with a tool is not in the cards.
