Warnings
| Warn me when CircuitWorks has to create more than |
Specify warning thresholds for:
- New components - CircuitWorks only builds a component model when there is no model in the Component Library. Building a large number of models can take considerable time. Consider filtering out components that are not required.
-
Drilled holes, Keep-out or keep-in areas, Traces, Pads, Filled areas, Annotations - Building a board with a large number of features increases the model build time and the size of the resulting model file. CircuitWorks warns you if a threshold will be exceeded before building a model. You can optionally cancel the build and filtering out features to reduce the amount of modeling required.

Warn me before
| Overwriting the board model |
Prompt before overwriting existing board files (the same board was previously modeled by CircuitWorks).
|
| Overwriting any component models |
Prompt before overwriting existing component model files (the same component was previously modeled by CircuitWorks).
