Slots in ECAD Boards
User Interface Location: Ribbon
Release: Creo Parametric 8.0.0.0
What is the benefit of this enhancement?
In Creo Parametric 8.0.0.0, you can create, edit, import, and collaborate on ECAD cuts and slots.
A slot is a specific type of ECAD cut with an attribute to identify it as a slot.
• You can import and export ECAD cuts and slots with an IDX file (EDMD version 3 and above) when they have an ECAD MCAD ID.
• Slots are imported as a separate cut feature along with attributes that identify them as ECAD Slots.
• Changes to a cut or a slot (such as add, move, and delete) are fully supported in ECAD-MCAD collaboration (getting, proposing, and sending changes).
Additional Information
Tips: | Cuts and slots without an ECAD_MCAD_CREATION_ID_STRING parameter are imported and exported as part of the board outline. |
Limitations: | • The hole filtering out functionality on import is not applicable for slots. • An imported slot cannot be converted to a hole or a cut. |
Does this replace existing functionality? | No. |
Configuration option associated with this functionality: | None. |
