The Checklist Panel

When you are at certain key stages in your design such as when you have completed the schematic design it is good practice to check your design. DEX provides you with the Checklist panel for just such a purpose.

The Checklist panel is a collection of controls that let you 'check off' you design.

To view/hide the Checklist Information panel click the PanelsPanels clip0614 button.
