Here’s just a small sneak peak at what’s inside Altium 16:
You’ve got your clearance boundaries set in your design rules, but wouldn’t it be great to see those boundaries visually while you route your board?
With Visual Clearance Boundaries you’ll clearly understand the impact of your routing decisions in real-time. Visually see clearance boundary lines between traces and objects as you route your board, and create the most accurate and error-free PCB possible.

Ever find yourself ready to manufacture your board, only to find out that one of your components is no longer available from a supplier?
With the new Alternative Part Choice System, you’ll have complete control over your component selection process. Easily set alternative part choices directly in your that get automatically substituted if your primary part selection is unavailable.

Do you enjoy treating your PCB as a work of organized art, with precisely placed components and degree-specific tracks?
With the new Component Placement System, you can design the most organized and efficient board layouts possible. Easily place and drag components that push, avoid, and snap-to alignment with other objects on your board with a simple keyboard shortcut.
