netTracerComputeNeighborNetMethod

layoutXL netTracerComputeNeighborNetMethod cyclic { "logical" | "logicalandphysical" }

Description

Specifies the method that the Net Tracer uses to compute net names for the neighboring shapes of a traced shape.

• logical: Uses the same net name if a neighboring shape already has a net name. In a hierarchy, the top-most net is used as the net name for a neighboring shape. If a neighboring shape does not already have a net name, no net name is assigned.
• logicalandphysical: Uses the same net name if a neighboring shape already has a net name. If the neighboring shape does not already have a net name, the neighboring shape is physically traced until a shape with a net name is found, and that net name is used for the neighboring shape.

The default is logical.
