Interactive sliding can call on the same set of routing technologies that are available during interactive routing and also supports the Conflict Resolution Modes, including Push, Hug and Push, and Ignore. Connected track segments will remain connected at the angle they were previously connected - a behavior called interactive sliding (because it maintains the orthogonal/diagonal patterns defined in the original routing). To re-arrange existing routing, click and hold on a track segment then drag it to its new location. Rerouting is performed in the same way as the initial routing using the Interactive Routing (or Interactive Differential Pair Routing) command - when you complete the new route path the old loop of redundant track segments is removed.Īlternatively, you can re-arrange the routing. Rerouting is ideal when the new route path is more complex than simply moving a few track segments. There are two approaches to modifying the routing you can either reroute or re-arrange. Routing a board can be a complex and time-consuming process as you work to position the components and complete the routing - move that component slightly, shove that routing, re-route those critical nets to avoid potential cross-talk, now see if that bus can be routed through that area, and so on. As you route your board, you will be constantly modifying routing that you have already done. The end result is that your finished routing can end up looking like it was autorouted, with lots of unnecessary jigs and corners. More often, you will be routing a set of nets and as you move on to the next set of nets, you are continually adjusting and moving existing routes, perhaps manually dragging them, or perhaps pushing and shoving them as you interactively route more nets. Rarely are you able to simply route all of the nets in a single pass. Routing a printed circuit board is a detailed, iterative process.
