New component does not show pad numbers. I can create a component and the pad numbers are on but don't show in Component Editor, place the component in schematic still no pin numbers, mouse over a pin, it shows the pin number. Parts already created show pin numbers.
This is bad.
It looks like incorrect property value. Check Component/Pin Numbers property for new parts, it should be Common (to use Schematic settings) or Show to force displaying it.

That was it. For some reason I keep trying View/Pin Numbers
I just exported a layout to Eagle and that worked great except Eagle wouldn't let me see the 3D view....

SnapEDA
About as painless as can be, takes less then a minute and 4 clicks. I just realized there was no 3D, need to have a link to the 3D, click and download it. The add to active was two clicks....

Diptrace team,
Thank you for adding the drop down % zoom n the 3D preview window, that is a great help for sizing the pcb on my PC screen

I like the Snap EDA feature too, very useful

Best Regards
John

Looks like temporary problem. Just tried to download and got 5.5 Mb/s which is quite good for my home connection.
