Description

Displays an area that you specify in the DFTInsight Schematic View window.

The View Area command displays in the Schematic View window a rectangular area whose diagonal coordinates you specify. When you use this command, it adjusts both the horizontal and vertical axes.

The interactive method for viewing a specific area in the Schematic View window is to click on the View Area button at the top of the window and then, using the click-drag-release mouse action, select the area that you want to view. This action transcripts the View Area command with the actual x,y coordinates for duplication purposes. You can cancel the View Area click-drag-release mouse action by pressing the Escape key prior to releasing the mouse button.

When entering the View Area command you must include the commas between each x and y coordinate.

Note

Arguments

∙x1

A required integer specifying one x-coordinate of the rectangular area that you want to view. The tool pairs this x-coordinate with the y1 argument to define one corner of the rectangle.
