Layout Point

Layout Points are used to define custom layouts for Wires, and Cables in the Schematic View, and for Bundles in the Layout View.

Adding a Layout Point

Double-click a Wire, Cable, or Bundle to add a Layout Point. You can also right-click the item and select Add layout point from the context menu.

More than one Layout Points can be added to a wire for more complex routing.

Moving Layout Points

To move a Layout Point, left-click and drag it to the desired position.

You can shift + left-click to select, or marquee select, to move multiple Layout Points at once.

When moving a Layout Point, parallel guide lines will appear on the sides of the item being adjusted when it is aligned horizontally, vertically, or at 45°.

Left-click and drag on a Wire or Cable will move the two layout points on either side of the dragged position.

Deleting a Layout Point

Double-click the Layout Point
Select it and hit the Delete key
Right-click and select Delete

Deleting all Layout Points on a Wire, Cable or Bundle

Right-click a Wire, Cable, or Bundle and select Delete all layout points from the context menu.

Deleting All Layout Points in a View

In the bottom right of the Schematic or Layout Views go View Options → Clear all layout points. This will delete all layout points on the corresponding view.

Orthogonal Layout

Right-click a Wire and select Make orthogonal from the context menu or press the O key. This will layout these items orthogonally (only horizontal and vertical) using Layout Points.

Make All Paths Orthogonal

In the bottom right of the Schematic View go View Options → Make all paths orthogonal or press shift O. This will lay out all Wires orthogonally. This will override any existing layout points.
