Constraint Sets
Constraint Manager is built upon Constraints Sets - collections of constraint values that can be applied to Nets, XNets, Diff Pairs, Classes and Class-to-Class Relational Spacing Objects.
CCS has complete tools for easily creating new CSets, and for reading, displaying and editing existing Physical , Spacing and Electrical CSets. No PCB Editor License is required.
CSets are the only way to define Physical and Spacing constraints by layer. CCS supports both by-layer CSets for specific stackups, and Generic Constraint Sets for use without a specific stackup.
Read Existing CSets
​
See, display, and edit by-layer Physical and Spacing CSets, and Electrical CSets, in CCS.​
No PCB Editor License is required.​ CCS enabled BackAnnotation automatically reads all CSets in Constraint Manager into CCS.​
CCS reads CSets directly from imported TCF TechFiles.

Create/Edit Physical CSets
​
Create Physical by-layer CSets with CCS.​
Create CSets from scratch from your BRD stackup, or duplicate & modify a new CSet from an existing CSet.​
See and edit existing by-layer Physical CSets, imported from Constraint Manager in your BRD or read from TCF TechFiles.
