You can manage and accept or reject changes in parent-child
associations, whether updates come from ECAD or MCAD.
CircuitWorks now supports parent-child
associations between components and other board items, such as keep-in, keep-out, plated
holes, and non-plated holes, when interacting with IDX3.0 files. You can accept or
reject changes to these items from either ECAD or MCAD.
Benefits:
- Accept or reject all associated changes in one action,
regardless of whether the updates originate from ECAD or MCAD.
- When modifying parent components in MCAD, all related child
items are updated automatically during the export to CircuitWorks.
To use this feature, do the following:
- Click .
- Select ProStep EDMD and select
