<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&lt;small&gt;This article is part of an introduction tutorial called [[CrashCourse2]]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> &lt;small&gt;Download this article as [[media:placetrack.pdf|PDF-File]]&lt;/small&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> The placement of tracks can be done manually or by the use of one of the TARGET autorouters, in this case we use the &quot;Hybrid autorouter&quot; in layoutmenu &quot;Actions&quot;. Also the keyboard key [r] or the function key [F9] will launch the Hybrid Autorouter.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hybrid_e_1.jpg|none]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> The opening dialog of the hybrid router has three sections divided by tabs. First the section &quot;Signals&quot;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hybrid_e_2.jpg|none]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Now choose from the list one or more or all signals. If you select none, all are routed.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hybrid_e_3.jpg|none]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> The second tab allows &quot;strategic&quot;, &quot;operative&quot; and &quot;tactical&quot; settings. In the strategic area we leave the default settings with &quot;two passes of disentangeling&quot; and &quot;one pass of optimization&quot;. In the tactical area we place the slider between &quot;disliked&quot; and &quot;forbidden&quot;. The third tab allows the assignment of certain signals to certain routing layers. We enter: &quot;Copper bottom&quot; (Layer 2) is available for all signals, &quot;Copper top&quot; (Layer 16) is blocked for all signals. Click on each layer line at the left to set it&#039;s performance.&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hybrid_e_4.jpg|none]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> Now watch the router do it&#039;s work...&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hybrid_e_5.jpg|none]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> ...and expect the following result:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Image:Hybrid_e_6.jpg||none]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> Deletion of the routing result: Drag highlighting square over all and press the &#039;&#039;&#039;[Del]&#039;&#039;&#039; key. Only the autorouted [[Track|tracks]] will be gone.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> [[Place tracks by hand|Next Step]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> [[Import matching packages (footprints) to the layout|One step back]]&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> [[CrashCourse2|Back to the overview]]&lt;br&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> [[de:Leiterbahnen verlegen]][[fr:Tracer les pistes]][[category:Layout]]</div>
