Component Rule Checks

• Violation Type Description – displays all violation types in three categories: Violations Associated with Components, Violations Associated with Footprints, and Violations Associated with Symbols.
• Report Mode – displays the current report mode for the associated violation. Click the current mode to access a drop-down from where you can select the desired mode: No Report, Warning, Error, Fatal Error. Any of the user-defined checks at a level of Error or above that fail would prevent the release of a component to the connected Workspace.
