Create a Composite Field
You can create a composite field that contains other fields—with the exception of tab folders and their tab pages.
To create a composite field
1. Open your frame in the Frame Editor (see Open an Existing Frame).
2. Click Insert, Field, and then select one of the field types listed in Composite Fields.
3. Position and size the field on the form.
To create a composite field by grouping
1. Open your frame in the Frame Editor (see Open an Existing Frame).
2. Create one or more basic fields using the procedures detailed elsewhere in this chapter.
3. Select the fields to be included in the composite field.
4. Select a composite field type for the selection group from the Group menu.
5. Specify the composite field's properties just like you would do for any other field.
The following sections discuss each of the composite fields in OpenROAD and include information about creating the field and setting its properties.
