Summary

Returns all child objects of pin objects whose IEEE Symbol Outside property complies with the Query.

Syntax

Object_IeeeSymbolOuter(Parent) = IeeeSymbolOuter_String
Object_IeeeSymbolOuter(Parent) <> IeeeSymbolOuter_String

IeeeSymbolOuter_String must be one of the following strings:

  • 'Analog Signal In'
  • 'Bidirectional Signal Flow'
  • 'Digital Signal In'
  • 'Left Right Signal Flow'
  • 'No Symbol'
  • 'Not Logic Connection'
  • 'Right Left Signal Flow'

Example Usage

Object_IeeeSymbolOuter(Parent) = 'Digital Signal In'
Returns all child objects of pin objects whose IEEE Symbol Outside property is Digital Signal In.

Object_IeeeSymbolOuter(Parent) <> 'Bidirectional Signal Flow'
Returns all objects except child objects of pin objects whose IEEE Symbol Outside property is Bidirectional Signal Flow.

Object_ObjectKind(Parent) = 'Pin' && Object_IeeeSymbolOuter(Parent) <> 'No Symbol'
Returns all child objects of pin objects except those pin objects whose IEEE Symbol Outside property is No Symbol.

Tips

  1. The single quote characters (') at the start and end of IeeeSymbolOuter_String are mandatory.
  2. The IEEE Symbol Outside property is only defined for pin objects.
