Along with the Project Source Files option to download the design's documents, the Derived Files list includes the following downloads derived and generated from the source data: These are in pre-configured formats unless otherwise determined by included design files such as BOM, Draftsman and OutJobs documents. The design output Downloads pane ( ) on the right of the design view offers a new series of derived file download options suitable for manufacturing and review purposes. A selected net in the list is also selected in the Schematic and 2D/3D PCB views – and conversely, selecting a net in the Schematic/PCB view will select that net in the Nets list. The design Web Viewer now provides an interactive Nets navigation list derived from the project source data. These include Comments and Sharing interface updates, improved access to Nets, and new options and data in the viewer's information/details pane on the right. The NEXUS Server's Web Viewer – its interface for viewing and navigating through a project's design documents and data – has undergone a general user interface refresh along with the addition of several usability enhancements. Note that Freehand Drawing and Area selection are not available in Layer Stack Commenting.Ĭurrently, the Models preview images are available only after the component models have been regenerated (edited and saved) or newly created. In this case Comments can be applied to any Layer Stack element (Layer, Via, etc) by selecting its graphical object, and then entering your comment with any user mentions and assignments in the contextual commenting window. The Layer Stack view is accessed in the same way when viewing the Design Snapshot of a project Release.Īs with other views available in the Web Viewer, Comments can be placed on the Layer Stack view. Open the Layer Stack view by selecting the Stackup View command from the Board Info pane in the project design viewer, or from the Layers menu when a PCB is being viewed. The Layer Stackup View presents the board's internal structure along with associated data such as layer types, materials and dimensions. While connection to Altium NEXUS Server 5.0 is possible from earlier versions of the Altium NEXUS design client, users are encouraged to update to the latest version – especially where Workspace enhancements relate to changes to the user interface within the NEXUS design client.Ī graphical representation of the current design's PCB Layer Stack – the board's physical stack of layers – is available when viewing a design project.
