To list all footprints again, clear (delete) the entry in the Mask field. Note that the Mask field is not case sensitive. In this way, the PCB Library panel offers a fast and easy way to browse, view and access PCB library footprints.

Selecting a primitive object in the panel causes the corresponding object to be highlighted in the editor workspace.

Other - a simplified, overall view of the currently selected footprint with the main editor view indicated by an overlay graphic.Īs a footprint is selected in the panel, its constituent primitives populate the Footprint Primitives section and the footprint is displayed in the main editor workspace.

The number of pads and primitive objects used to define the footprint is listed for each entry.

Footprints - a list of footprints in the active library.

The panel has three main sections, each offering a different scope or view of the footprints in the active PCB Library: If the PCB Library panel is currently in a group of panels, use the PCB Library tab located at the bottom of the panels to bring it to the front.
