> ## Cross Probing Between 2D and 3D Views of the Same File

> 1. From the Analysis menu, select Cross Probe.

> The Cross Probe dialog box appears.

> Note: From the AutoVue toolbar, you can also click Cross Probe .

> 2. Click Add File.
> 3. In the Open dialog box that appears, select the same file, then click Open.
> 4. In the Cross Probe dialog box, click OK.

> The file appears in a new AutoVue window. The views that display in each window depend on the contents of file you are cross probing.

> If the file does not contain a schematic, one window shows the 2-dimensional view of the PCB and the other shows the 3-dimensional view of the PCB.

> If the file contains a schematic as well as a PCB, the schematic view displays in one window and the 2D PCB view displays in the other window. In this case, take the following steps to see the 2D and 3D views of the PCB:

> 1. In the window’s dialog, deselect the Automatic option.
> 2. Select a different view from the TYPE list. For example, you can switch between Schematic and PCB 3D View.
> 5. Select an entity in the 3D view.

> The same entity is highlighted in the 2D view of this file.

> Note: You can select entities in the 2D view or 3D view of the file. The selected entities are highlighted in both open views of this file.
