ptPinPurposeNames
layoutXL.floorplan ptPinPurposeNames string "purposeName"
Description
Filters the list of metal and poly layers by specified purpose names in the Layer Purpose Pair (LPP) list on the Pin Tool and Pin Planner forms.
The default value is an empty string (" "), which means that the LPP list in the Pin Tool and Pin Planner displays all the valid metal or poly LPP combinations.
When set to a purpose name, the LPP list in the Pin Tool and Pin Planner displays current LPP and the filtered purpose names based on the values specified for a layer. This reduces the displayed LPP list, showing only the values that are supported. For example, if the purpose is set to "pin", only the layers with that purpose defined are displayed in the LPP list.
