OrCAD Capture is a graphical user interface based application used for schematic design. This application provides you with a large set of user-friendly tools and features to easily capture your schematic design. It also has a well-defined workspace that ensures you can work on your schematic design in the most optimized manner.
The project manager provides a hierarchical Windows explorer type access to the resources in your Capture design.
The schematic page and part editors provide a consistent and easy way to create and modify pages and parts that you require to build your design.
The Session Log windows logs the application messages and Online DRCs window checks and lists the violations of design rules as you are creating or updating the schematic design.
The workspace also includes a set of menus that contain the commands (in the form of menu items) that you use for the operations in Capture. In addition to the menus, Capture also comes with a set of toolbars that provide shortcuts to many of the commonly used commands.
