Use this option if an outline has been imported from an MCAD tool as a DWG/DXF file. From selected objects - typically done from an outline on a mechanical layer.Switch to Board Planning Mode ( View » Board Planning Mode) then use the Redefine, Edit or Modify Board Shape commands in the Design menu.
Manually - by redefining the shape or moving the existing board vertices (corners).Regardless of the final make up of the board (single rigid area or multiple rigid-flex sections), the overall outer shape is referred to as the Board Shape. Note that PCB documents created using the PCB templates have the Board Shape already correctly sized. The shape can be resized, or redefined, in a variety of ways. When a new board file is created, the default Board Shape is sized 6000 x 4000mil. Calculating the board edge when outputting design data to other tools.Defining the extents of the power planes for plane edge pull back.Placing bending lines on a flex board region.Splitting a board into multiple board regions.The Board Shape is used by Altium Designer when: When you create a new PCB document, it is the black area with the visible grid showing inside (assuming the grid is coarse enough to see at the current zoom level). The Board Shape is a PCB object that is also referred to as the Board Outline, and is essentially a closed polygon. The Board Shape defines the boundary, or extents, of the board in the PCB Editor. Redefining the Board Shape Using Jump Location.Modifying or Redefining the Board Shape.Defining the Board Shape from a 3D Body.Defining the Board Shape From Selected Objects.Importing an Outline to Use for the Board Shape.
