Hi

I work as a Product Manager in Altium's R&D department. I'm doing some background research for a new feature and would be grateful if anyone who works on PCB designs in Creo could tell me how they go about defining any areas (for example component keepout, component keepin, copper keepout etc) on a board? E.g. sketches on a surface (or extruded features) in the model which then get included in an IDF export, or included in a 2D DXF... Or just drawn directly into a 2D drawing?

Many thanks

Jack

I have done PCB designs and ECAD import into Creo

There are tools in Creo for ECAD design to designate areas, basically a special sketch that is exported
look into cosmetic ECAD areas

I think your "background research" is actually an advertising bid for a product that is ready for sale.
