Variant - Schematic - Project level parameters

Created: March 25, 2021 | Updated: August 12, 2021

Note of project priority when used in conjunction with special strings at various levels of your project files. How are same named parameters resolved?

Starting in Version: 18.0
Up to Version: Current

Solution Details

Parameters included at various levels in a project exist in a hierarchy, which means you can, in fact, create a parameter with the same name at different levels in the project, where each has a different value. Altium Designer resolves this situation using priorities, in the following way:

  1. Variant (highest priority)
  2. Schematic document
  3. Project
