I can not find the Autoplacer, or any of parts placing options

Hi
 
After I got a training on NI-Multisim and Ultiboard, I tried to review the course using our version of software.
I have a problem in finding the Autoplacer option, it does not exist.
 
I have Ultiboard education edition, 10.0.343

Sorry to have to tell you this, but the autoplacer for components is available only in the Power Pro Version of Ultiboard.

For me, unless the design is quite large, I mainly place my components manually. Most of the time the Auoplacer never puts anything where I want it. I thought I would pass this along so you wouldn't think that the Autoplacer is the only way we all put parts on a board.

the autoplacer sucks, it does a good job off getting things based on net list fairly thee close.......but other than that.....this is one area that UB is a complete turd.

There should be options for alignment of components based on place options, distances with offsets, and many other things......just place the parts manually.....its less of a hassle.
