This task shows you how to create a zone. | |||
A zone is used to logically group objects. You do this by
creating boundaries, which are used to enclose groups of objects. In the
illustration below the user has drawn a polygon around some lines and
components. That polygon can be designated a boundary and made part of a
zone. When you assign certain properties to the zone they will also be
assigned to the objects within all the boundaries that are part of that
zone.
A zone has certain properties that you can assign or change. It is global in nature and can extend over several documents, and contain numerous boundaries. While a zone is global in nature, once you create a boundary and make it part of a zone, it becomes local, or specific to that document. This means that when you change the properties of the zone you do it locally so that the change applies to a specific document. |

Before you create zones you must designate a directory in
which they will be stored. See Project Resource Management for Electrical Connectivity Diagrams. For more information see also Understanding Project Resource Management. |
