Please note that after layouts are saved in version 7.20.0020 and later, they will no longer be able to be opened in previous releases of FCS Express. There are a significant number of fixes and enhancements in those releases, including an update in the way quadrants are created and used. Please see our Knowledge Base article for more information on quadrants as gates, why the change was made, opening an older layout and on quadrant statistics.

De Novo Software is aware that Apple has announced that starting with macOS 28, Macs will no longer support Rosetta 2 — the translation layer that allows Intel-compiled software to run on Apple Silicon (M-series) hardware. macOS 28 is expected to be released in Fall 2027, and Rosetta will remain available and supported through macOS 27, giving the De Novo Software Team ample time to prepare for a transition.
De Novo Software intends that FCS Express will remain compatible with future macOS releases. We are actively working to ensure that FCS Express is compatible with an Apple Silicon build well ahead of the macOS 28 deadline.
As always, we are committed to keeping FCS Express current with the platforms upon which our our customers rely. If you have any questions about compatibility or your current installation, please contact us at support@denovosoftware.com.
