The dimension can be specified separately for each wire, meaning that multiple different dimensions may occur within the same wire-chain.

 

There are three possible ways of defining dimensions. These methods are described below, with increasing priority.

 

▪A default dimension can be specified in the project parameters.

 

▪Dimension can also be specified in a property symbol.

 

▪Finally, dimension can be specified in a wire-number symbol.

 

The property symbol has priority over the project parameters, and the wire-number symbol has priority over both the other ways of specifying dimensions.

 

▪The default dimension that is specified in the project parameters is valid for all wires in the entire project, for which nothing else is specified.

 

▪The range of a dimension that is specified in a property symbol can be either a Node or a Sub-node. Which it will be, is specified in the property symbol using a radio button. The Via (wire) option is currently not implemented. Please refer to the Property symbol topic.

 

▪A dimension that is specified in a wire-number symbol, is always valid for one single wire only.
