Summary

Returns all objects whose Object Kind property matches the specified type of object.

Syntax

IsObjectKind(ObjectType : String) : Boolean/Boolean_String

ObjectType specifies the object kind and must be one of the following strings:

  • Design Objects – '3D Body', 'Arc', 'Angular Dimension', 'Baseline Dimension', 'Center Dimension', 'Component', 'Coordinate', 'Datum Dimension', 'Design View', 'Drill Table' , 'Embedded Board', 'Fill', 'Layer Stack Table', 'Leader Dimension', 'Linear Diameter Dimension', 'Linear Dimension', 'OLE Object', 'Original Dimension', 'Pad', 'Poly', 'Radial Diameter Dimension', 'Radial Dimension', 'Region', 'Split Plane', 'Text', 'Track', 'Via'.
  • Design Rules – the following strings are used to target the various rule types. The rule type, as it appears in the PCB Rules and Constraints Editor dialog, is shown in brackets after the string:

Example Usage

IsObjectKind('Via')
IsObjectKind('Via') = True
IsObjectKind('Via') = 'True'
Returns all via objects.

Not IsObjectKind('Track')
IsObjectKind('Track') = False
IsObjectKind('Track') = 'False'
Returns all objects except track objects.

Tips

  1. The single quote characters (') at the start and end of the ObjectType string are mandatory.
