schHiFollowPin(
[ ?order t_order ]
)
=> t

Description

Changes the cellview to one that contains the specified pin or offsheet connector. Operates on the selected set. Brings in the cellview that contains the first reference of the selected pin or offsheet connector. Usable only when editing a sheet of a multisheet schematic.

You must first compute the pin references using the schHiComputePinRef function before you can use this function.

If you have not selected the pin or offsheet connector, the schematic editor prompts you to select the pin or offsheet connector.

The schematic editor zooms into the area that contains the specified pin or offsheet connector. For example, if you selected first, the schematic editor displays the cellview that contains the first reference of the pin or offsheet connector you selected.

Use the schHiComputePinRef function to generate the reference lists for the pins in the multisheet schematic.
