Depending on the way in which it is accessed, this dialog is used to:
- Specify one or more rule types to be exported into a .Rul file from the currently defined set of design rules for the board.
- Specify one or more rule types to be imported from a .Rul file, into the set of design rules currently defined for the board.
- Specify the type of rule to be used when adding a parameter as a rule to a supported design object in the schematic domain or a schematic document.
Access
The dialog can be accessed in the following ways:
- From the PCB Editor - right-click in the left-hand pane of the PCB Rules and Constraints Editor dialog (Design » Rules) then choose either the Export Rules or Import Rules command, depending on whether you are wanting to export or import rules.
- From the Schematic Editor - in the Properties panel in Parameter Set mode (double-click a placed Parameter Set in the workspace or right-click on a placed Parameter Set then select Properties), click the Add button in the Rules region.
