Re: Google groups
Indeed, fine LTspice group, I am, most times, happiest to take the advice that one "learns more with mouth closed" ;-)
Thanks to all of you who proffer your experience in both LTspice and electronics, generally! I try to find my way, using available web resources and the many thread topics to be found in the archives, thus do not, often, need to ask too basic a question .... Vielen Dank, Helmut, especially, but also many thanks to the "usual suspects" Barry Rowland Bayern (that's near Germany ;-) ) |

Re: Doing the SYNC update with LTSPICEXVII 64/32 and LTSPICEIV
Hello wms121
You wrote : " Check your primary files in LTSPICEXVII where you should find the "scad.exe" files in LTSPICEIV. " I have XVIIx86.exe on 32 bits system and XVIIx64;exe on 64 bits on 64b systems. When I run? LTspiceXVII;exe the choice between 32 and 64b is not active. But it's not a problem. for me. All is clear and fine. So I don't understand your problem. Regards PhB |

Re: Doing the SYNC update with LTSPICEXVII 64/32 and LTSPICEIV
Maybe I didn't read well enough, but what is the purpose of all this? Because if it's about doing sync updates for IV and XVII, all you have to do is fire up the desired version and do a normal sync update -- it will correctly update its version, IV to IV, XVII to XVI, 32 or 64 bit.

Re: Doing the SYNC update with LTSPICEXVII 64/32 and LTSPICEIV
theeten,
Check your primary files in LTSPICEXVII where you should find the "scad.exe" files in LTSPICEIV. You should see a 64 bit .exe file and a 32bit .exe file listed. Follow the procedures I gave for each program. IF something happens doing this please post (even if you just had to use the "administrator options" or similar). So far everyone who uses a decent workaround has not had a serious issue. W. Warren |

Re: Doing the SYNC update with LTSPICEXVII 64/32 and LTSPICEIV
...just Windows 10 and Windows 7, although I have tested LTSPICEIV on WinXP and OpenSuse13 via WINE.
If I have any difficulties using Linux, OpenBSD or Solaris* I will post that info here. W. Warren *( haven't gotten WINE to work under Solaris 10) |

Doing the SYNC update with LTSPICEXVII 64/32 and LTSPICEIV
..just found this one out.
NO I didn't get any help from Mike E., Helmut, or Andy. Just sort of "smelled my way around" using what I know about Windows Applications. To do the sync update: 1.?? Start with the main installed files of LTSPICEXVII....locate the 64 bit .exe and 32 bit .exe versions 2.?? Run the 64 bit first (be sure and close ALL open LTSPICE windows before you do this)..do not reboot. 3.?? Then run the 32 bit version (this is IF there are no "error messages"...if you have several new programs ?????? you have run in 64 bit mode, the procedure in 64 should take longer than the 32..assuming you have done ?????? minimal activities in LTSPICEXVII 32 bit)..again DO NOT reboot...program, unless it has errors it should ? ? ? not tell you to reboot. 4.?? Now do the sync and update for your original install of LTSPICEIV...(you may need to reboot here IF you ?????? are prompted for that)...then definitely do a reboot when finished. If you get lots of errors in any of these procedures..be sure and check the locations of the files...keep 64bit files in your 64 bit folders..or sections of Windows 10 or Win7...don't "mix them".? If you installed LTSPICEXVII your system may take any .asc denoted program into that program....and you may need to do drag and drop to again use LTSPICEIV.? Previous notes on where and how to keep files separate..(in this group) should be noted and observed. W. Warren |

¿ªÔÆÌåÓýIt's a good point, but 'few' is probably an underestimate, judging by the number of people requiring approval to post who joined the group several years ago.

Request for XVII
Hi Was is possible for user to choose default file location for library collection elsewhere other than drive C, ie I keep all data in drive D which is sync or shared by external server.? The XVII can stay in program file ie drive C for example. Also include a link at the top RHS of the XVII window that jump to this forum. The google search does not provide top level?results?LTSpice from Yahoo.? Really useful to apply option to enable window control style on schematic, ie CNTR-D duplicate, CNTR-C copy, CNTR-V paste, CNTR-X cut, CNTR-S save, select and delete and so on or have custom key list with user choice (Save/load).?

I want one! I think it is more likely they skipped some that Mike needs for the new multiple monitor display, or something like that. That's why it won't load in XP but runs fine in Wine. Also pure speculation. However, since IV will continue to be supported, it no longer matters. I can continue to use IV, and keep XVII as a backup for troubleshooting in case I run into a snag. I think others can do the same. Mike |
