rotating groups of routed components and keeping clines connected

Lock2002 over 8 years ago

Is it possible to rotate a group of routed components without losing the connections? Allegro doesn't like to route anything other than 45 degrees cleanly, so I group the parts, route, then rotate, but the clines keep disconnecting.

chose option User Pick and box the whole circuit ( don't forget to check all symbol, cline, via, and so on).

You can rotate to whatever angle you wish, just define your angle.

Also so you can route whatever angle you want, just turn off the angle.

I hope that help you.

Regards,

I don't have a problem rotating the parts, it's the fact that my clines become disconnected after doing it. I get a DRC for an unconnected line on the pins.

It only does it with clines. It's not a problem if I create the connections with shapes, just clines.

"Derive Connectivity" works somewhat but it's still makes a mess.

Hi,

I have been doing the group rotating for years and don't really have problem.

Just confirm, did you check All On in the Find window before rotate the group? and use User Pick for option
