schdoc_move_note

Open an existing schematic that already contains one note, set that note to a new absolute rectangle, and save the modified .SchDoc.

This example is a focused geometry-mutation probe. It shows how to set an existing object's absolute position without touching internal Altium coordinate units.

What It Shows

  1. loading an existing SchDoc
  2. reading note bounds through note.bounds_mils
  3. creating a new absolute SchRectMils
  4. assigning that rectangle back through note.bounds_mils
  5. saving with AltiumSchDoc.save(...)
  6. reopening and checking the moved bounds

Run

From the project root:

uv run python examples\schdoc_move_note\schdoc_move_note.py

Input

This sample uses:

examples/schdoc_move_note/input/note_move_input.SchDoc

Output

The script writes:

examples/schdoc_move_note/output/note_move_output.SchDoc

Expected Result

The input note starts at:

  1. (1000, 3000) -> (3000, 4000) mil

The sample sets the note to:

  1. (2500, 2500) -> (4500, 3500) mil

This example uses the public structured geometry helpers instead of raw internal 10-mil document units. location_mils exists for single-point placement, while bounds_mils is the more natural fit for note/text-frame style records.
