Syntax
Name : String
Example Usage
Name = '<All Components>'

Tips
- The Name property is only defined for class, component, design rule, net, pad, and polygon pour objects.
- In the case of pad objects, a full Name property has to be specified; this consists of an initial sub-string which specifies the Name property of the pad's parent component, followed by a '-' character, followed by another sub-string which specifies the Name property of the pad itself. Pads which are of a 'free' nature are identified by an initial sub-string of 'Free-', followed by the sub-string that specifies the pad's own Name property.
