NetCollection

The collection on nets on a schematic.

Example

application = cf.Application.getInstance()
project = application:Load({FEKO_HOME..[[/shared/Resources/Automation/Cables.cfx]]})

    -- Create the schematic view

harness = project.Contents.CableHarnesses[1]
schematicView = application.MainWindow.MdiArea:CreateCableSchematicView(harness)

    -- Add some nets

net1 = harness.CableSchematic.Nets:AddNet({-8, -1}, {-8, 13})
net2 = harness.CableSchematic.Nets:AddNet({-8, 13}, {-7, 13})

Inheritance

The NetCollection object is derived from the Object object.

Usage locations

The NetCollection object can be accessed from the following locations:

Property List

Count
The number of Net items in the collection. (Read only number)
Label
The object label. (Read/Write string)
Type
The object type string. (Read only string)

Method List

AddNet (start GridLocation, end GridLocation)
Adds a net between the given locations. (Returns a Net object.)
AddNet (start Terminal, end Terminal)
Adds a net between the specified terminals. (Returns a Net object.)
AddNet (path List of GridLocation)
Adds a net along the given path. (Returns a Net object.)
Delete ()
Deletes the entity.
DeleteEntities ( List of Object)
Delete the given list of entities from the collection.
Duplicate ()
Duplicates the entity. (Returns a Object object.)
GetProperties ()
Returns a table of properties representing the state of the object. The properties table can be used with the SetProperties method to change multiple properties of the object in one step. (Returns a table object.)
Item (index number)
Returns the Net for the given index in the collection. (Returns a Net object.)
Item (label string)
Returns the Net for the given label in the collection. (Returns a Net object.)
Items ()
Returns a table of Net items. (Returns a UnsupportedType(List of Net) object.)
SetProperties (properties Object)
Modifies the state of the object using the provided table of properties. This method is used to modify multiple properties of the object in a single step.

Static Function List

GetDefaultProperties ()
Creates a table containing the default settings to create an object. (Returns a table object.)
