Shows the owner of board or other outline. When set to ECAD, MCAD has no ability to change it.
|
|
ECAD_PLACEMENT_STATUS
|
PLACED UNPLACED FIXED
|
IDF/IDX/EDA
|
Unplaced—The component is not placed on the board.
Fixed—The system fixed component placement. Auto-routing will not move the component.
|
|
ECAD_ALT_NAME

|
|
ECAD_NAME
|
Any
|
All
|
Contains the package name, and may or may not be the name of the Creo Parametric part depending on the usage of the hint map file.
|
|
