Database > Project Signal Types

Commandline: st

Explanation

This tool provides access to the Project Signal Types table of the Project database. Many of the default display behaviors originate here, for instance:

•The color of pins on a block.

•The color of cables.

•The Cable Type associated with the Signal Type.

•The Cable Number prefix.

These values preempt the Default Signal Types grid. This grid has priority. If signal type information is required by the application it first looks to the project, then to the default.
