Altium room definition schematic.

The altium community hosts several online videos showing schematic features here. Rectangular or polygon type rooms can be placed on either the top or bottom layer of the board and can either be placed empty associating components at a later stage or placed around components in the design automatically associating them to the room. Room locked allows you to lock the room in its current position within the design preventing accidental movement either manually or by the autoplacers. If the project is a multi channel design and the source and destination channels are members of the same channel class then format copying will be applied to the.

Rectangular or polygon type rooms can be placed on either the top or bottom layer of the board and can either be placed empty associating components at a later stage or placed around components in the design automatically associating them to the room. A room is a primitive design object. The big advantage of using rooms in a multi channel design is that the pcb editor supports duplicating the placement and routing from one room channel. For example a click in the projects panel opens a schematic sheet another click opens the pcb and another click opens the outputjob file showing all the outputs you need to generate from the completed board.

One of the great strengths of altium designer is how easily you can move between the various elements of your design. When you transfer a design from the schematic editor to the pcb editor the components from each sheet are clustered in a pcb placement room if room creation is enabled in the project options. New altium users may not fully understand the benefits of organizing schematic sheets into a hierarchical top down or bottom up perspective. It is a region that assists in the placement of components.

It is a region that assists in the placement of components. A room is a primitive design object. Destination room this field contains the name of the destination room representing the channel from the schematic that the copied placement and routing will be applied to.

However design is much more than just having easy access to design.
