Design Constraints

On startup Layout XL transfers all the constraints defined in the schematic view to the layout view, correctly mapping the constraints and their members between the two views.

Constraints in the schematic are transferred to the top-level layout view. Constraints that have been created or changed in the schematic but not yet saved are also transferred.

Device correspondence information is maintained during the transfer. Logical and physical name bindings are tracked and constraints are updated appropriately to take account of folded instances in the layout.
