Meta Parts

Meta-Parts consist of a query against other matching parts. For example, if you have 10k 0805 1% and 10k 0805 5% resistors in your database, and you have a project where it doesn't matter if you use 1% or 5% resistors, you can simply create a meta-part to cover those:

• 

  Creating a meta-part

• 

  Creating a restriction

• 

  Operator Choices

• 

  Assigning parts for a meta-part

In the project reports, you can pick which specific part(s) you want to use.
