Single Connect

Connects an output/IO socket to an input/IO socket

Multi Connect

Connects multiple output/IO sockets to input/IO sockets with the same signal

Polyline

Draws the circuit similar to a polyline with corner vertices; click while drawing to create vertices, routing the circuit around other drawing objects as needed. See Creating polylines.

Rounded

Draws the circuit with rounded vertices (generally used to denote busses or multi circuits)

Chamfer

Draws the circuit with chamfered vertices

Arrow

Draws the circuit with arrows; on the output socket, the arrow indicates the direction of signal flow; the destination input socket displays a “reverse arrow.” This is useful when a polyline circuit would be too complex or would cross over too many lines, or to connect devices on different layers, including with project sharing (see Project sharing).

When a file with arrow circuits is exported to a single, multi-page PDF with the Publish command (Design Suite required), hyperlinks are automatically created to connect the sockets. This allows you to navigate through the circuit by clicking on the arrow circuit.
