To access the PropertyManager in the route subassembly, click Tools > Routing > Electrical > Flatten Route.

Flatten Type

Annotation Specifies simplified representations of the route as a flattened configuration and drawing. The lines are not true lengths, but the annotations on the route segments display the true length of the routed wire.
Manufacture Specifies scaled representations of the route as a flattened configuration and drawing. These representations are made to scale within a region.

Flatten Parameters

Route Sketch Segment Specifies a sketch segment near a route segment end. The segment specifies the orientation of the flattened route.
Flattened Route Center Specifies scaled representations of the route as a flattened configuration and drawing. These representations scale within a region.
Formboard Width Sets the width of the formboard sketch.
Formboard Height Sets the height of the formboard sketch.
Segment Orientation Horizontal or Vertical or Orients the selected segment. If you do not select a segment, it orients the segment closest to the center of the route.

Flatten Options

Flatten Clips Displays the flatten clips on flattened drawings.
Display 3D connectors Displays the 3D models of the connectors in the flattened route.
Use drawing connector blocks Displays 2D drawing blocks of the connectors in the drawing of the flattened route. No connectors appear in the flattened configuration of the model.
