Hiding RoomsCheck out Quick Altium Reference & , Tips, Troubleshooting for how to hide rooms when you’re in layout. {need to add to page and link to section} Room CreationBy default, hierarchical sheets will each create a “component room” when pulled into PCB layout. These rooms can be moved, copied, and manipulated with all the components and copper put within them. Additionally, rules (and any other queries) can be applied on the room level. These are generated any time changes from schematics are pushed from schematics to layout. This behavior can be turned off or modified as needed. Easy CopyingAs shown in the Shepherd screenshot at the start of this section, hierarchy can be used for repetitive circuits. This saves time not only in schematic, but also in layout thanks to rooms.
