Attribute Display from Script/Command

e14 Contributor
e14 Contributor over 14 years ago

Hi

 

Reading throuht the help file on attributes, I'm not able to find how to set

the Display property of an attribute. I add attributes like this in the

schematic:

 

attribute LED1 MF 'AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES';

 

But the default for Display is "Value", but I want it to be "Off". I

manually have to

 

attribute LED1

 

and edit it by hand with mouse / keyboard. How can I do this from the

script/command prompt (attribute command).

    Hi,

     

    the CHANGE DISPLAY command is used to control the attribute's

    visibility, see HELP CHANGE:

     

    CHANGE DISPLAY OFF;

    attribute LED1 MF 'AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES';

    CHANGE DISPLAY OFF;

    attribute LED1 MF 'AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES';

     

    I was a bit to quick in my last response.. I can go around my problem by

    calling delete first (if already visible).

     

    ATTRIBUTE LED1 MF DELETE;

    CHANGE DISPLAY OFF;

    ATTRIBUTE LED1 MF 'AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES';

     

    But as far as I can see, the CHANGE DISPLAY will only work for attributes

    not already created, else you have to use GROUP, which implies mouse action.

    see HELP CHANGE:

     

    CHANGE DISPLAY OFF;

    attribute LED1 MF 'AVAGO TECHNOLOGIES';

     

    That meens I have to GROUP, which implies using the mouse to select them. No

    way to do this via the PART and ATTRIBUTE names? Something like this (which

    is not working, but just here as an example of what I look for)

     

    CHANGE DISPLAY OFF LED1 MF
