This dialog displays the common properties of all conductors using the selected wire style.
When you select multiple wire styles and then change values of properties common to all selected styles, you apply the new property values to all conductors defined by the selected styles. For example, if you select multiple wire styles that have the Line Color property, and change the property value to red, then all conductors defined by the selected wire styles change to red in the active document.

Select a wire or conductor type and click on the Properties icon, or select the Properties option from the contextual menu. |
Name: The name of the wire.
Numbering group: The group the wire is a part of.
Conductor: The type of conductor. This can be a non-electrical conductor.
Line color: Click the button [...] to select the color of the line representing the wire.
Line type: The type of line representing the wire.
Line width: Set a width to specific wire. This width is automatically applied on the wires in schemes.
Equipotential formula: Click the button [...] to access the formula manager and define a formula for the equipotential numbering.
Wire formula: Click the button [...] to access the formula manager and define a formula for the wire numbering.
Propagate: Check the box if you accept that the wires of this wire style can be updated by the Propagate data feature.
This section is for the parameters used in wire routing. If you associate a cable reference, these fields are automatically updated by the reference. These settings will be applied to all wires of this type drawn in the schematic drawings.
Diameter: The diameter of the wire.
Section or gauge: The section of the wire.
Wire size standard: The standard used in the project.
Wire color: Click the button [...] to select the real color of the wire. This color will be used in 3D routing.
Bend radius (x Diameter): The required parameters to calculate the bend radius (parameter x diameter = bend radius).
Cable reference: Click the button [...] to associate a cable reference.
Voltage: Electrical data not yet implemented.
Frequency: Electrical data not yet implemented.
Enter the description in each of the different languages used in the project.
Use this property to list data specific to your project.
Use this property to list data you need to translate.
The dialog resembles the Wire properties dialog. However, this dialog shows properties common to all conductors that compose the wire style.
It is sometimes necessary to edit the properties of a conductor within a wire or wire style, to change its color, or to modify its equipotential and wire formula.
