Abstract
A height-limited-area-information creating device creates a clip plane on a base plane of a printed circuit board, and sets a view so that an image faces the base plane and a normal to the base plane represents a depth direction of the image. According to the view, a three-dimensional image of a chassis-side component is created. The base plane is divided into unit areas, and one of the unit areas is selected. Coordinates of vertices of the selected unit area are transformed to screen coordinates to acquire a component and a polygon at the position of the screen coordinates. Distances from respective four vertices to the polygon are calculated as height, and a minimum value is determined as a maximum height for the unit area.
