Tool | Description |
|---|---|
Create Matrix | Defines the layout of the panelized assembly you want to create from a single-up PCB ECAD file.
 |
Rotate | On a panelized layout, rotates selected board images a specified number of degrees. Use Rotate Free Form to rotate selected boards on the panelized layout using an angle you specify. |
Flip Circuit Side | Flips the circuit on selected board images. |
Step and Repeat | Creates a secondary matrix from one of the circuits already created with the Create Matrix option. For example, you would select this option if you needed to create a panel layout consisting of the original circuit, a circuit to the right in the X plane, and a circuit below on the Y plane (a 2x2 matrix without the diagonal circuit). In the dialog, you can set up the spacing and offset measurements. When you select the Create Panel button, the panelization is completed using the parameters you specify.
|
Duplicate | Duplicates selected circuits. |
Delete | Deletes one or more selected circuits on a panelized layout. (You cannot delete the root circuit.) |
Reset Panelization | Restores a panelized layout to a one-up board image. |
Circuit Color | Changes the color of the circuit. |
Line Weight | Modifies the line weight of the circuit. |
Order Circuits | Specifies the order of the circuits on a panelized assembly. Click a number to reset Circuit 1.  |
Alignment Tools | Aligns or distributes selected circuits on a panelized layout for optimal fit:
|
Show Components | Shows or hides all components on a panelized assembly. |
Calculator | Provides a calculator to use when working on panelized layouts.
