Summary
Returns all pad objects whose full name property complies with the Query.
Syntax
HasPad(PadName : String) : Boolean/Boolean_String
The PadName string specifies the full name that a pad has to match; this consists of an initial substring which specifies the Name property of the pad's parent component (i.e. the component's Designator), followed by a substring that specifies the pad's own Name property (i.e. the pad's Designator). The format will therefore be 'ParentComponentDesignator-PadDesignator'.
Example Usage
Not HasPad('C14-1')
HasPad('C14-1') = False
HasPad('C14-1') = 'False'
Returns all objects except the pad object whose Name property is 1, and which is a child object of the component object whose Name property is C14.
HasPad('U5-11')
HasPad('U5-11') = True
HasPad('U5-11') = 'True'
Returns the pad object whose Name property is 11, and which is a child object of the component object whose Name property is U5.
HasPad('U*-11')
HasPad('U*-11') = True
HasPad('U*-11') = 'True'
Returns all pad objects whose Name property is 11, and which are child objects of component objects whose Name property starts with U.
HasPad('*-1*')
HasPad('*-1*') = True
HasPad('*-1*') = 'True'
Returns all pad objects whose Name property starts with 1, and which are child objects of any component object.
Tips
- The single quote characters (') at the start and end of the
PadNamestring are mandatory.
