Workbench updates Ultiboard, Ultiroute.


TORONTO -- Electronics Workbench Electronics Workbench is an electronic circuit simulator, and was also a company based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada that first produced the software.

The company was originally founded as Interactive Image Technologies
 has launched Ultiboard 8 and Ultiroute 8, completing the Series 8 tool suite. Innovations include tighter integration between manual routing and autorouting, the ability to turn off the rats nest for selected nets, and the ability to "unplace" all unlocked components from the board.

Integration between the two tools permits the user to nudge nudge 1
