Question: When attempting to export files I receive the following error “dml_eda-230001-Internal error”.
Answer: This problem can appear if there are net names that don’t exist in the design but appear when the net_short property is displayed. This commonly happens when a PCB design is reused without clearing the net_short property from all features. The nets with the net_short property attached must exist in the current netlist. To fix this issue, remove the net_short property on these nets.
