4:51 Workspace General Settings 5 min Videos Engineering Managers Electrical Engineers PCB Design Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers This video demonstrates some of the general settings within the Admin Section of a user's workspace. It also contains general information on topics such as the workspace, name, description, URL, and server location. The video begins by renaming the workspace, adding a description, and viewing the server location for the workspace data and the URL. Once changes are made, users are instructed to log out and log back into the workspace to view those changes. Afterwards, the workspace name is changed to eliminate confusion between multiple workspaces. Read Article
2:12 Folder Permissions 2 min Videos Engineering Managers Electrical Engineers PCB Design Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers This video demonstrates how to set sharing permissions for folders in the Explorer Panel. To do so, expand the components folder, and select a folder within it. Next, right click and select properties. In the properties dialog box, select the share link, and alter the permissions for users via the drop down option. To add a role, type it in. Any permissions set for a folder will also apply to the children's folders within that top folder. Finally, close the dialog boxes by selecting okay twice to set the sharing permissions for a component. Read Article

5:19 Move a Project Between Workspaces 4 min Videos Engineering Managers Electrical Engineers PCB Design Engineers Engineering Managers Engineering Managers Electrical Engineers Electrical Engineers PCB Design Engineers PCB Design Engineers This video demonstrates two processes to move a project from one workspace into another. The first method begins in Altium Designer by opening a project, unlinking the git folder, turning off the synchronization, and making it available online. However, this method does not include the project history. The second method also begins in Altium Designer, within the workspace. In this method, the user manually unlinks the project in notepad by removing the managed folder. Then, a fake version control system is created using the Tortoise Git Tool. The changes are pushed to the local version control and the project is made available online and migrated to the workspace version control. Read Article
