The Binary and Unary versions of the Applicable Rules dialogs
The Applicable Rules dialog allows you to quickly access information about which binary and unary design rules apply to the two chosen objects in the design workspace. Binary rules apply between two objects or between any object in one set to any object in a second set. As a consequence, binary design rules have two rule scopes. Unary rules apply to one object or each object in a set of objects. They have a single rule scope.
To access the Binary version of this dialog:
To access the Unary version of this dialog:
If, rather than seeing which rules apply between two objects, you would prefer to pick a rule and see to which objects that rule applies, this can be achieved from the PCB Rules And Violations panel. As you click on a specific rule in the Rules region of the panel, filtering will be applied, using the rule as the scope of the filter. Only those design objects that fall under the scope of the rule will be filtered, the visual result of which (in the main workspace) is determined by the highlighting options enabled (Mask/Dim/Normal, Select, Zoom).
