Description The component’s description.
Label The component’s user-defined label. Click on the field and type in desired
text. Can also be entered in the Label tab in the component’s properties
dialog box. For details, see “4.9.1 Modifying Component Labels and
Attributes” on page 4-34.
Coordinate
X/Y
The position of the component on the workspace. This field is read-only and
changes as the component is moved on the workspace.
Rotation Click to display a drop-down list of the selections available to rotate the
component. “Unrotated” is the component’s original position. Other selections
are: Rotated 90 (90 degrees clockwise from original position), Rotated 180
(180 degrees clockwise from original position), Rotated -90 (90 degrees
counter-clockwise from original position). You can also rotate a component
by right-clicking on it in the workspace. For details, see “3.3 Using the Pop-up
Menus” on page 3-10.
Flip Click to display a drop-down list of the selections available to flip the
component. “Unflipped” is the component’s original position. Other selections
are: Flipped X (horizontal flip from original position), Flipped Y (vertical flip
from original position), Flipped XY (a horizontal and a vertical flip from
original position). You can also flip a component by right-clicking on it in the
workspace. For details, see “3.3 Using the Pop-up Menus” on page 3-10.
Color Component’s color. “Default” is based on the color scheme selected in the
Circuit tab of the Sheet Properties dialog box. Click to display a Color
