Creating a printed circuit board (PCB)

Creating a printed circuit board requires a PCB 3D space. Connect your circuit using the 2D view on the bottom of the space and then arrange the real-life views of parts in the 3D view on the top of the space.

When you are ready to create your printed circuit board, press the real-PCB button on the PCB 3D space toolbar. A screen opens, giving you three options:

• Quick option: This uses default settings to create your board. real-PCB will work in the background.
• Custom option: Choose your own board, placement, and routing settings. real-PCB will work in the background.
• Manual option: This opens real-PCB so you can manually create or edit your own PCB then send it back to Crocodile Technology.
