Here is a neat trick. In the comment section type in as an example this =Value+' '+Toleranse This will take produce a comment like this 1K 1% If the component value parameter is 1K and the toleranse parameter is 1%. The ' ' is a space you could use '-' to make 1K-1%. Another example is =Designator+'-' Value+' '+Toleranse. Will make a comment string like this R5-1K 1%.

If y'all are having trouble putting the footprint on the component you drew due to it not showing up try restarting Altium it fixed it for me. Make sure you save first*

This is good, but it's too easy to just jump to the IPC wizard and call the tutorial done. That's for beginners. For those of us trying to cross-train from another layout software, we're more interested in the common problems, such as a custom connector with mechanical drawing using strange relative dimensions, and custom annotations in the schematic. Please provide a followup for those features.

Why can I not simply move items from the part search into my library and edit the existing files Altium provides. Why must I down load or use the cloud system to do what I believe to be a simple application

This helps , what we also would like is a video showing how for a professional industry design nomenclature of parts is done and BOM is generated

Hi Phil, Thank you for the great video. What is your approach when creating other footprints ( i.e. SOIC, MSOP, SOT-23) especially considering that different manufacturers show slight differences in dimensions and tolerances? Do you usually follow a more generic approach like a single footprint covering multiple i.e. SOIC8 packages and increasing tolerances if it's required by when a new component is added? Or would you recommend having a single footprint for each component (at least per manufacturer)? But then how could we fit this approach when having alternative components with the "same" package?

While footprint generator advanced a little in Altium, I do prefer creating own 3D bodies. It comes especially handy, when projects are size constrained or parts are exotic. 0402 in example will be unfit in ultrahigh density applications.

На привьюхе резистор по ГОСТу, а не забугорный, я правильно понимаю?

Hi! Thanks for this video. Is it possible that this is an AI generated trainer?

It is absolutely not an AI generated video

Hi Philip Salmony, i would like to recommend using the footprint model from the PCB library option "library path" instead "any" while assigning footprint to a symbol. this could avoid picking up the different footprint while using different footprint library files.

Thanks for the tip!

So far so good. But some important information is missing. I would like to have a separate component in my library for each R0402 resistor value, for example, where all the information (manufacturer, order number, ....) is already stored. Do I have to draw a new symbol each time? How can the local library be moved to the workspace for access from several computers?
