)
=> t / nil

Description

Extends the current selection to any related instances, terminals, and nets.

The function expands selection to any:

• Unselected instances that are part of a folded, mfactored, sfactored, vectored, or lxCombination device in the current selected set.
• Bus or bundle nets or terminals.
• Instances, terminals, or nets that share the same base name if the binder is not present.

Arguments

None

Value Returned

t	The selection is extended successfully.
nil	No new instance, terminal, or net was found or the selection could not be extended.

Example

Consider that an Mfactor device has two instances M1 and M2 and a bus pin has pins P1 and P2. If M1 and P1 are selected and lxSelectedExtendExpanded is run, then M2 and P2 are also added to the selected set.
