Parent page: PCB Query Functions - Fields

Summary

Returns all design rule and violation objects whose Scope 1 property complies with the Query.

Syntax

RuleScope1 : String

The entered string must target the scope defined for the rule (e.g. 'All').

Example Usage

RuleScope1 = 'All'
Returns all design rule and violation objects whose Scope 1 property is All.

RuleScope1 = 'InNet(''D7'')'
Returns all design rule and violation objects whose Scope 1 property is InNet('D7').

RuleScope1 Like 'InNet(''???'')'
Returns all design rule and violation objects whose Scope 1 property is InNet('???').  The string of the associated net needs to consist of exactly three characters, with examples of compliant Scope 1 properties being InNet('GND') and InNet('VCC').

In the second and third examples, the name of the net (D7 and ???) is surrounded by single quote characters within the Query specifying the Scope 1 property. When such a Query is used within another Query, it needs to be enclosed in another set of single quote characters, and hence the double single quotes.

Tips

  1. The Scope 1 property is only defined for design rule and violation objects.
