How to rotate components and modules in Allegro software? [Copy link]

The first step is to tell you how to rotate a single component. The first method is the Rotate command. This command is used in conjunction with the Move command. To execute the Move command, select the component in the Find panel and grab the component. The component will be attached to the mouse, as shown in Figure 6-10.

In the second step, after the component is attached to the mouse, right-click the mouse and execute the Rotate command to rotate the component, as shown in Figure 6-11. The rotation angle can be set in the Options panel. For example, if it is set to 90 degrees, the component will be rotated 90 degrees. When it is rotated to the required angle, click the left mouse button to complete the rotation.

The second method of rotating a single component: The first step is to execute the Spin command. Under the Edit menu, there is the Spin command, which is used alone;

The second step is to execute the spin command, select the Symbols component in the Find panel, and then you can rotate the component. The specific operation steps are the same as executing the Rotate command.

Then, let's talk about how to rotate the module. The first method: The first step is to add Groups to the entire required module. For specific operation methods, please refer to the previous question and answer;

In the second step, after adding the Groups group, we use the Rotate command to rotate and execute the Move command. In the Find panel, we need to select the Groups group, as shown in Figure 6-11;

Step 3. After executing the above command, all elements of the entire module, including components, traces, vias, copper foil, etc., will be attached to the mouse. Right-click to execute the Rotate command to select the entire module. The specific operation method is the same as that of a single component, as shown in Figure 6-12.

The operation method of the Spin command is the same as that of Rotate, so I will not go into details here.

The second method of rotating modules is introduced. In many cases, we may not add Groups attributes to some modules. We need to rotate them. The specific operations are as follows:

The first step is to execute the move command, select in the Find panel, check All on, check all the elements, and then select the User Pick mode in the Options panel. This is very important, otherwise the rotation will not be a whole, but a scattered rotation, as shown in Figure 6-13;

In the second step, after setting the Find panel and the Options panel according to the above parameter settings, select all the elements that need to be rotated. After selecting, click the left mouse foot, select a rotation reference point, and right-click the Rotate command to rotate, as shown in Figure 6-14;

The operation method of using the Spin command is the same as that of Rotate, except that the Rotate command is used in conjunction with the Move command, while the Spin command is used alone, so I will not go into details here.
