New features and enhancements
Support for Windows 2016 [PLA-4984]
PLA Mac client 64-bit compatibility [PLA-4994]
Retention of original spot colors from mapping in Pandora or PLA when layouts are sent to Prinergy Workshop [PANDORA-1479]
This ability is off by default. If you want Pandora or PLA to retain the original spot colors from mapping when viewed in Prinergy Workshop under Color Separations, you need to add AutoColorMap.PrintMappedColor=true
to the DefaultUser.properties
file in the Pandora application folder. For PLA, the DefaultUser.properties
file is found in the LayoutAutomation\server\WEB-INF\classes
folder on your Prinergy server.
Show only the latest revision of an element when browsing ICW Projects and Libraries [PLA-5002]
This ability is off by default. If you want PLA to show only the latest revision of an element in the Add InSite Files window, you need to add <placeholder: info to come> to the DefaultUser.properties
file in the LayoutAutomation\server\WEB-INF\classes
folder on your Prinergy server.
Limitations
The Multiple Die feature requires that each die has a separate name [PLA-4940]
Unlike Pandora, which will allow you to add the same named die to the layout more than once, PLA requires that each die have a separate unique name.
Die Waste and Split Color Bar marks do not get placed to more than one die [PLA-4961]
When you add multiple CF2 files to your layouts, the Die Waste and Split Color Bar marks will be applied to only to the first die station. The other die stations do not get these marks applied.. This functionality will be implemented in a future version.
Validation rules for Multi Die Width and Height [PLA-4963]
When you add multiple CF2 files to your layouts, there are no current validation rules that can be used to verify that the dies will fit on a fixed substrate size. This functionality will be implemented in a future version.
