Setting Layout constraints in ORCAD Capture schematic

Hi,

Can any one tell me how to navigate through ORCAD capture CIS to set PCB layout constraints which help me saving time...is it possible to set constraints like grouping/class-class spacing,pinpair etc in capture instead of allegro pcb

Your suggestion will be very helpful for everyone

Regards,

Gowtham

    You cannot do this yet. In the comming 17.2 Hotfix 49 the same constraint manager shall be available in Capture.

    Yes you will be able to do this in capture but you will need to import the constraints from a PCB design since Capture does not have any stackup information or editor.
