Great video. Can you make a video/tutorial on how to design pcb antennas?

I don't change designator size whole component with single action in assembly view. Can you help me?

I have multilayer in my circuit.I can't colored bottom through hole in assembly drawings.I guess altium isn't interpret multilayer

Amazing videos. Precise and short. Do you have any guides about how to create PCB array drawing?

Thank you, we have a video about this coming out soon, it is mostly about DFM with panels. However once you create a panel in a PcbDoc file, you can place the panel in a Draftsman doc just as you would with any other PcbDoc.

I submitted a Draftsman fab drawing to my fabricator and they insisted they needed the drill guide as a Gerber. I couldn't get a reason as to why out of them. I set up the outfile so they were both generated at the same time so I could be reasonably sure that the drill data in both files was the same. I couldn't figure out why, except as a manual check on the NC drill data. There were thousands of holes so the check must have been random sample.

I'm going to assume you also sent them the NC drill data? I normally include the drill guide and the drill drawing as gerbers just in case they want these, I think it's mostly for front-end DFM.

Hi Zach, My PCB design has a couple of fixing holes that are used for a retaining bracket within the design, the holes obviously don't appear on the BoM but the bracket does. How would I go about showing the bracket in the Assembly Drawing created in Altium Draughtsman?
@Zachariah-Peterson2 жыл бұрын
Since the bracket was created as a component you could give it an assembly layer. Then you could draw the outlines you needed in that layer and any other markings, those will then appear in the assembly view in draftsman.

Hi Zach. I asked this in another video, before I found this one, so sorry if it's repetitive, but you've been great at answering questions, so I am hopeful you have an answer to this. There are these fields that are faded, such as "=Revision". What is the right way to give these values? I don't seem to be able to edit these directly, so I tried adding them to the Project/ProjectOptions/Parameters and now that parameter I added doesn't display anything the "=Revision" any more, not even what I added. It does show up also as a PCB Parameter in the drawing parameters, but again, doesn't display it. What's the right way to handle these "=Parameter" fields on the drawing that aren't "User" fields? Things that are clearly "User" I can change like =CompanyName. Also, if I do use the user parameters, how do I change the font size for them? As of now, I am just doing everything with free text, since I can put it where I want, and I can change the font as well. Thank you! - Austin

I don't recall which of these applies in Draftsman, but these might be in the document parameters (Accessed in the Properties Panel). Normally I do everything in the Project Parameters because that parameter system works pretty universally throughout Altium Designer.

@@Zachariah-Peterson What figured out was, if I add the same parameter, say "Revision" to the project via Project/Project Options/Parameters (and given it a value, say "0.0"), and in each sheet, set the "Revision" parameter to "*", it uses that project based parameter.
