Wire type grid
Displays the wire types used in the active drawing. The wire layer name and
the wire properties like color, size, whether the wire layer is processed for wire
numbers, and user-defined properties are listed in the grid. An 'x' in the Used
column indicates that the layer name is currently used in the drawing. A blank
value in this column indicates that the layer name exists in the drawing but
it is not currently being used.
A “No” in the Wire Numbering column indicates that wires on this layer do
not receive a wire number. The Insert Wire Numbers command follows these
rules:
■ If all wires in the network are on layers set “No” for Wire Numbering, no
new wire number is inserted.
■ If any wire in the network is on a layer set “Yes” for Wire Numbering, the
existing non-fixed wire number is updated or a new wire number is inserted.
■ If a wire network already has a non-fixed wire number, it is updated
regardless of the Wire Numbering setting. Use the Delete Wire Numbers
command to remove the wire number.
NOTE Manually maintain wire layer type consistency through signal arrows.
To rename the User1- User 20 column headers, right-click the project name
in the Project Manager and select Properties. In the Project Properties ➤ Wire
Numbers dialog box, Wire Type section, click Rename User Columns. In the
Rename User Columns dialog box, specify a new column name and click OK.
Renaming of user-defined columns is project-specific. You cannot rename the
Color, Size, or Layer Name columns. All the data corresponding to the header
column can be copied, cut, and pasted to another column.
Pick
Allows you to pick a wire or line in the active drawing. Once you pick a wire,
the corresponding wire type record is highlighted. If you pick a line in the
active drawing, you can add the layer where the line resides to the list of valid
wire layers. A new wire type record is created automatically.
Change/Convert
Changes all the wires in the wire network to the se-
lected wire type record. If unselected, only a single
wire is changed to the selected wire type.
