Branch Section: Primary Area

The primary area of the Branch section provides commands for creating create new electrical objects.

This page discusses:

Flyout for Managing Electrical Geometries
Flyout for Managing Segments Arrangement
Flyout for Managing Segments Connection
Flyout for Recomputating Segments
Flyout for Managing Split and Merge
Flyout for Managing Manipulation and Duplication of your network


	Electrical Geometry Creates one or more electrical geometries. See Flyout for Managing Electrical Geometries
	Route Multiple Elements Routes several branches through a set of supports or retainers. See Routing Multiple Branches with Multiple Elements Automatically.
	Arrange Segments Arranges the position of segments inside the support. See Flyout for Managing Segments Arrangement
	Connect Segments Connects a segment to a device or another segment. See Flyout for Managing Segments Connection
	Segments Centercurve Recomputes the segments' centercurve. See Flyout for Recomputating Segments
	Merge Merges two coincident branches. See Flyout for Managing Split and Merge
	Network Manipulation Assistant Lets you translate branches and allows to reconnect them after the manipulation. See Flyout for Managing Manipulation and Duplication of your network
	Floating Point Creates a floating point. See Routing Branches on a Floating Point.
	Local Slack Adds or removes slack between two passing points. See Managing Local Slack.
	Protective Covering Orientation Orients one or several protective coverings according to a viewing direction. See Using the Protective Covering Orientation.
	Delete Special Deletes a branch. See Deleting Branches.

Flyout for Managing Electrical Geometries


	Electrical Geometry Inserts an electrical geometry in your product structure. See Inserting an Electrical Geometry.
	Electrical Branch Geometry Inserts an electrical branch geometry in your product structure. See Inserting an Electrical Branch Geometry and First Branch.
	Protective Covering Adds an electrical behavior of protective covering type on a part. See Using the Protective Covering Orientation

Flyout for Managing Segments Arrangement


	Arrange Segments Modifies the arrangement of segments inside a support. See Arranging Segments in Supports Manually.
	Arrange Segments at Junction Creates or modifies the arrangement of segments at a branch junction. See Arranging Segments at Junction.
	Copy Arrangement Propagates a segments arrangement from one support to another support. Click the command. Select a source support, and then select a target support. Click in the work area to validate. See Copying Arrangement between Supports.
	Auto Arrange Segments Positions automatically the segments inside a support using a customized logic. See Arranging Segments in Supports Automatically.
	Arrange Junction Assistant Facilitates the arrangement of branches at a branch junction. See Arranging Branches Manually.

Flyout for Managing Segments Connection


	Connect Segments Creates an electrical connection between a segment and a device, or between two segments. See Connecting Segments Geometrically.
	Disconnect Segments Deletes the electrical connection between a segment and a device, or between two devices. See Disconnecting Segments.

Flyout for Recomputating Segments


	Segments Centercurve Updates the segments centercurve according to the Segment Computation algorithm selected in your preferences. See Updating an Existing Electrical Branch Geometry.
	Segments Diameter Updates the segments diameter according to the properties of the conductors routed inside the segments. See Updating the Segments Diameter.

Flyout for Managing Split and Merge


	Merge Branches Merges two branches sharing a common passing point or a common support into one branch. See Merging Branches.
	Split Branch Splits a branch into two branches at a branch point. See Splitting Branches.

Flyout for Managing Manipulation and Duplication of your network


	Network Manipulation Assistant Lets you modify the position of your network and provides the tools to reconnect your branches after the manipulations. See Manipulating your Network.
	Network Duplication Assistant Lets you copy an existing network to position it at another location in your design. See Duplicating your Network.
