Splitting

Multicore and Overbraid Indicators

If the conductors in a multicore or overbraid connect to different pin lists, you can specify whether the individual indicators on the multicore or overbraid stretch across all of the conductors or whether they are split so that there is part of the indicator on each of the conductors.

For example: You have 3 devices and 2 wires as follows:

Figure 7: Example of 3 devices and 2 wires

The two wires are put in a multicore. By default, the indicator at the right-end of the wires is split as shown (Note that for overbraids, the indicator would not be split by default. These default settings can be changed in the Project Preferences in Capital E/E Publisher):

Figure 8: Two wires put in multicore

You can right-click on one of the split indicators, and then select the Stretch Indicator option from the pop-up menu. The indicator changes as follows:

Figure 9: With Stretch Indicator applied

If you want to split an indicator again, right-click on it, and then select the Split Indicator option from the pop-up menu.
