I’ve seen people draw nets all over the place because they didn’t take the time to rotate the 3D model of a component. If you don’t spend much time in the tools, you may not know or remember what you need to do to in order to rotate a part. Take rotating a 3D model of your board shape, for example. The problem though is that we are probably missing out on some great productivity enhancers by not learning more about the tools that we drive. As long as we can run a circuit simulation or get the data and parts on the schematic sheet to connect, that’s normally good enough. As design engineers, we have a lot of things that we do. It’s not surprising that we don’t spend a lot of time enhancing our working knowledge of the CAD tools.
