SelectSegmentByJointLoc Method (View Object)

Scope: Schematic editor

Object: View Object

Prerequisites: None

Selects a net segment based on the location and type of the lower joint in the segment.

Note:

Locations are defined as lower if they are closer to the location X=0, Y=0. It is possible for two segments to have the same lower joint location and the same joint type at that location. This is a rare condition usually resulting from pasting two copies on top of each other. In this case, only the first occurrence in Xpedition Designer's display list is selected.

Note:

All coordinates are measured in 100ths of an inch.

Usage

View.SelectSegmentByJointLoc(ByVal XCoordinate As Long, ByVal YCoordinate As Long, ByVal JointType As VdJointType) As Boolean

Arguments

XCoordinate

The X coordinate of the low joint of the segment.

YCoordinate

The Y coordinate of the low joint of the segment.

JointType

Defines the type of joint at this location to be considered. This is of the form VdJointType Enum.

Return Values

As Boolean. The return type for this method. True - the selection occurred. False - no selection occurred.
