NetGroup without CMGR representation

Biradin88
Biradin88 over 3 years ago

Hello,

In a new board schematic I create a NetGroup and add signals to it, then I transfer the netlist to a PCB and open the constraint manager. The filter is set to show all objects.

1) With a constraint manager enabled in Capture no buses appear in the constraint manager of Capture and Allegro.

2) Without a constraint manager enabled in Capture I see the buses properly represented in the constraint manager in Allegro.

Can I somehow enable the schematic NetGroups to appear as buses in the layout constraint manager (and in Capture constraint manager?) in a constraint manager enabled in Capture?

I enable constraint manager in Capture by going to constraint manager and following the steps to migrate constraints from schematic design then I sync with layout.

    You can either create a NetClass of the nets in Capture CM then these wuld be transferred to PCB Editor CM or go to PCB Editor, create the Bus in CM then use the Update Schematic to pass it back. The buses only exist in capture without a CM flow. The CM flow doesn't transfer this netbased property to CM in capture.
