How are the parameters defined in Altium Designer?
Altium Designer supports parameters at various levels of the project – project-level parameters, document-level parameters (defined for a schematic sheet), and variant-level parameters. They also have a hierarchy, which means you can create a parameter with the same name at different levels of the project, each having different values.
Where to find deleted components in Altium Designer 21?
If the Properties panel is already active, select an object in the design space. If a component used in a design (or managed schematic sheet) has been deleted, this will be indicated at the bottom of the General tab in the Properties panel by the associated ‘Deleted’ icon.
Can a design object be locked in Altium?
If the Protect Locked Objects option is enabled on the Schematic – Graphical Editing page of the Preferences dialog, and the Locked option for that design object is enabled as well, then that object cannot be selected or graphically edited.
How to rotate the parameter string in Altium?
Click and drag the parameter string, use the Spacebar and Shift+Spacebar keys to rotate it in 90° steps, and then click to confirm its new position/orientation. See Parameter String Positioning below for information on component parameter Autopositioning and related Properties panel options.
Do you supersede the title of a project in Altium?
So “Title” in Project Parameters will not supersede “Title” in Document Parameters. Altium describes the process of implementing Global Parameters here: https://github.com/Altium-Designer-addons/scripts-libraries/wiki/AltiumPCBProjectTemplate
Where do I find the properties panel in Altium?
