			== Creating score panels ==


			Scoring panels can be very practical in production, as the PCBs can simply be broken apart at the scored lines as a predetermined breaking point after assembly. Scoring panels do not need to be milled, which saves time and space. A V-shaped score is drawn through the entire panel, from top and back. This creates the predetermined breaking point:

			You must check the box “Create scoring panel” and you can define a border for the handling.

Internally the component names get adjusted like explained above but the texts shown get separated and become functionally changed from "Component name" to "Normal text". The earlier names within the text field are kept. Now create a panel and copy such a "panel clone" to your other layout. Copy and paste one of the clones of the panel. Don't copy and paste the original one which is top left or the bottom left (depending on how you set the panelization to be going). So you have two different layouts within one PCB-Project and keep identical component namings.<br><br>

	When pasting the layout by the clipboard you give new names automatically to all signals if you get asked for it. So there don't appear unwanted air wires between the PCBs.
