Menu bar
The menu bar contains the "FILE", "SERVICES" and "HELP" menus.
The function of the "Copy PCB" menu option of the "FILE" menu is explained in more detail in section 8.1.3.1.
A complete description of the "SERVICES" menu is contained in section 8.1.3.2.
☞
NOTE
Since the functions and operation of the "FILE" and "HELP" menus are similar to those in other application
programs of the line computer, they are described comprehensively in chapter 2.
Display area
In the display area the selected PCB can be displayed in two different ways, depending on the currently active
"mode":
-
Upon opening, the editor is initially in the
"Structure Mode"
(see Fig. 8.1.4). In this mode, the name and the
structure of the loaded PCB are displayed. To be able to manipulate the PCB´s structure, the individual
partial PCB structures must be selected by clicking with the mouse.
-
If the editor is in the
"Graphic Mode"
(see Fig. 8.1.6) the entire PCB (depending on the selection of the ele-
ments, see section 8.1.3.4) is displayed graphically, including all placement positions, fiducials, ink spots,
coordinate systems, etc. If the offset values of at least one substructure are not completely defined, a
"structure graphic" is displayed in addition to the display of the PCB (see Fig. 8.1.7).
Command Area
Every command in this area is symbolized by an icon. If a partial PCB structure has been selected in the display
area, it can be manipulated by means of the activated command (see section 8.1.3.3).
Setting area
If the Structure Editor is in the Graphic Mode (see Fig. 8.1.6), different display options can be set using the
selection possibilities offered in this area (see section 8.1.3.4).
