Syntax Copy Link Copied
EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing : Number
Number will follow the measurement units currently employed for the document – either Imperial (mil; 1mil = 0.001inch) or Metric (mm; 1mm = 0.001meter).
A specific option for the measurement unit can be specified – overriding the default units specified at the document level – through use of an additional measurement unit-based keyword:
AsMils(EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing) : Number– to specify a spacing in mil.AsMM(EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing) : Number– to specify a spacing in mm.
Example Usage Copy Link Copied
EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing = 1500
Returns all embedded board objects that have a Column Spacing property which is 1500 current measurement units.
EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing >= 1000
Returns all embedded board objects that have a Column Spacing property which is greater than or equal to 1000 current measurement units.
AsMils(EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing) Between 1000 And 1500
Returns all embedded board objects that have a Column Spacing property which is greater than or equal to 1000mil and less than or equal to 1500mil.
AsMM(EmbeddedBoard_ColumnSpacing) < 38.1
Returns all embedded board objects that have a Column Spacing property which is less than 38.1mm.
