Sheet Entry Properties

Parent page: Sheet Entry

Schematic Editor object properties are definable options that specify the visual style, content and behavior of the placed object. The property settings for each type of object are defined in two different ways:

• Pre-placement settings – most Sheet Entry object properties, or those that can logically be pre-defined, are available as editable default settings on the Schematic - Defaults page of the Preferences dialog (access from the button at the top-right of the design space). Select the object in the Primitive List to reveal its options on the right.

• Post-placement settings – all Sheet Entry object properties are available for editing in the Sheet Entry dialog and the Properties panel when a placed Sheet Entry is selected in the design space.
