Summary

This dialog is only available for users connected to an Altium 365 Pro account.

Options/Controls

Most information for a Revision Naming Scheme cannot be edited once an item is created. The fields that are editable are described below.
  • Content Types - click to open the Content Types dialog to select different content types for use with the revision naming scheme.
  • Apply Changes - after any changes are made, click to save the changes.
  • Reset - click to reset any changed made.
  • Scheme Name - type the desired name into the textbox.
  • Revision ID Levels - choose how many levels should comprise the Revision ID from the drop-down; either 1, 2 or 3.
  • Item and Revision Separator - choose the separator used between Item ID and Revision ID when the full Item-Revision is displayed.
  • Caption - enter caption text to reflect the meaning of each level in the ID. Caption text is used in an Item's lifecycle view (for Level 1 and Level 2, not the Base) and also for the right-click menu commands associated with revision-type changes.
  • Revision ID Format - specify the format of each level in the Revision ID, as well as a separator prefix for each. Formats supported are: Numeric (Zero), Numeric (One), Alphabetical (Uppercase), Alphabetical (Lowercase), and ASME Y14.35M.
  • Minimum Width - define the width of each level in the ID, how many digits/characters are used to represent that part of the ID.
