Palette and Symbol Usage

  This tool allows you to determine the amount of each palette used, and the number of each symbol and block used, in the current layer. This may be useful if you wish to estimate a cost for a design or tooling.

All entities are used in the calculation - they do not have to be selected and may even be invisible.

Text is included in the palette length calculation (in effect, it is exploded) but dimensions are not.

You are first asked which items you want to include in the calculations - Palette usage, Symbol usage, Block usage.

The results are displayed in the Palette, Symbol and Block Usage form.
