Shape Naming Mapping

This provides a mapping between the name of the Pin Shape and the string which will be Substituted for the field.

Naming Units

Choose the Units required and Unit Text required.

Note: On this Settings dialog, these are only used in the Pin Style Naming pages and are not used in the design. Note that there is a separate page used for all other Style Naming.

This enables you to Default to: Units of Metric or Imperial for the Style Naming pages.

Units and Unit Text

For each type of units, you can specify a precision. This is the number of decimal places displayed, the value is simply rounded to the nearest last digit. If you have the Rounding Indicator displayed, a + or - sign is shown at the end of the value to show that is has been rounded down or up. If Trailing Zeros are not displayed, the trailing zeros are not shown for values which do not require all the decimal places.
