Extend Rigid-Flex!!!

weskelin

Is there any easy way to extend the flexes in a rigid-flex board without rerouting the board and remake the outlines?

I know You can make groups of components/routing and move relative to current liteblue position, but how to cope with board outline, keepouts and others?

 I´m using Allegro PCB Designer version 17.2

  • Shape Edit Mode is the best way to edit outlines, keepins and keepouts. Look at the Options pane for settings but slide, add notch etc can help. Watch - www.youtube.com/watch. If you are extending routes when you Move a component there are settings in Options for Slide, Stretch and Ripup. These can help when moving a part. If you want to "cut" some routing, but not all try Manufacture - Drafting - Delete by Rectangle, this will cut an area of routing away so you can reposition components without deleting the complete route then just route the new section.
