Identifying Changes Using Standalone Creo View ECAD Compare
The ECAD user compares the compare-to-design *.eda file with the *.eda file of the modified design, created in Step 3 and Step 5 of the previous stage, in Creo View ECAD as follows:
1. Opens Creo View ECAD.
2. Loads the baseline design and the modified *.eda files.
3. Clicks > in Creo View ECAD to compare the two *.eda files. The comparison results are generated as an incremental EDMD IDX file.
