Hi Experts,
could somebody tell me please is there a possibility to create a schematics from an existing PCB layout?
(the opposite of the command Convert to PCB)
I have just the finished PCB Layout but not the schematics.
Thanks,
Stefan
Create schematics from existing PCB Layout?
Re: Create schematics from existing PCB Layout?
It's not possible in the current version of DipTrace. There is a "Back Annotate" tool in the Schematic Editor, but that only updates a few properties in preexisting schematics.

Hi Tom,
thanks for your explanation!
I know now it is not possible, I have to stop looking for.
Have a nice day!

Re: Create schematics from existing PCB Layout?
Looks like "Back Annotate" only updates pre-existed components parameters. If I add a new component in layout, I don't see that in schematics.
Re: Create schematics from existing PCB Layout?
New components are normally added to the schematic and then propagated to the PCB layout from there. In DipTrace (and historically) the schematic drives the layout.
