Set the scope of the rule to the required component component class or footprint.
Altium room definition between component.
This support is taken to the next level with the ability to define the generation of a hierarchical structure of classes in the pcb document.
In my early days of altium i had got rid of rooms so that i set the room to keep components outside and then deleted it.
A room is a primitive design object.
A room definition rule will automatically be created and assigned to the room with an initial scope full query of all.
For example one routing.
Flip a component in altium designer and other changes.
Crude but it worked.
This dialog can also be accessed in the placement region of the rules dialog.
When you re building your circuits creating a mirror in altium designer s schematic editor is a great way to stay organized without criss crossing multiple connections.
To scope other design rules as well as being a rule in their own right rooms can also be used to scope other design rules.
To define the components associated with a room double click on the room to display the room definition dialog.
When that room is moved all the components within the room move too.
Altium designer already provided high quality robust support for generation of classes component and net when transferring the design from the schematic to pcb.
13 2 1 1 moving components into a room components that have been.
A room is a primitive design object.
The components can then be moved to the room by running the tools component placement arrange within room command.
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.
Edit this query to target the specific component class previously defined.
Once component s have been assigned to a room they move when the room is moved.
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.
It is a region that assists in the placement of components.
Part of a room s definition is to specify the objects that must be contained within that room which is often components.
When we refer to flip a component in altium designer we really mean creating a mirror image of the component.
