A simple question how to modify pin shape

bobbygang

Hi,

   In symbol design,  I find that if I use "add pin" I can create a pin and I can specify its  type such as "squre" "round" "actHi". But how can I modify the type for existed pin of a symbol

 Best regards,

Bobby

  •  Hi Bobby,

     

    Did you want to change the actual shape of the pin or the type of the pin?  If you want to change the type, open your symbol for edit, select the pin and query the properties, usually the bindKey 'q'.  There's a cyclic field that has a list of all the pin types.

     

    If you want to change the shape you'll need to delete the old pin and create a new pin using the Create->Custom Pin... command from the symbol's menu banner.

     

    Hope that helps...
