Use the File Properties panel to view and change the properties of the ECAD file currently open in CircuitWorks.
To open this panel:
From the top of the tree view, right-click the board assembly
and select
Properties.
You can change the file version, board name, and source-system information. However, some ECAD file formats, such as IDF 2.0, cannot store this data so might be lost when saving to a different file type.
