schHiCreateNetExpression( 
[ ?netExpr t_netExpr ]
[ ?justify t_justify ]

)
=> t

Description

Creates an inherited connection and the corresponding net expression label. Usable when editing schematics or symbols.

If you do not specify t_netExpr or if you specify it as nil, the options form appears and prompts you for the net expression. If t_justify, t_fontStyle, and n_fontHeight are not specified, the software applies the current value of the respective environment variables: createLabelJustify, createLabelFontStyle, and createLabelFontHeight. The editor drags the label described by arguments and prompts you to select a location to place the label.
