Layout Editor Options: Advanced Panel

The following options are set in the Advanced area under Layout Editor in Tools > Options > General Options. These options control internal tolerance and resolution values.

Note:

Changes to global options only affect new layout designs (i.e., navigating to Tools > Options > General Options to open the global Options window, and choosing on the options in the Layout Editor tab) . To configure options for existing designs, navigate to the Design Options window (i.e., from Layout, select Settings). Then choose options on the associated tabs, and click OK to save changes. All changes made in the Design Options window affect only the active design).

Tolerance – specifies the tolerance used internally by the layout editor. Distances are considered equal if they differ by no more than the tolerance value. Default is 1e-9 mm. Normally, this tolerance should not be changed.
Arc Drawing Resolution – by default, arc resolution is dynamically adjusted depending on the zoom factor. You can instead specify a fixed resolution in the current drawing units (default units are mm).
