Da_Window Userware

The da_window userware defines a number of functions which are common to the schematic and symbol editors.

It defines as well a number of external variables that are used by the symbol creation utilities in the symbol editor. These variables can be modified in your own Personality Module in order for the symbol creation to conform to your own company standards.

Those external variables are divided by body type (MG_STD, ANSI/IEC, ANSI/IEEE, DISCRETE, FUNCTIONAL BLOCK and OTHER) and property type (DIGITAL, ANALOG, PASSIVE, MECHANICAL, FUNCTIONAL BLOCK and OTHER) so that different symbols can have different specifications.

Here is a list of all the external variables that are being used by the userware:

//----------------------------------------------------------------------
//
//    If you have to change any of these variables create and modify one of :
//       COMPANY_HOME/userware/company_da/userware/default/da_window.dofile
//       $MGC_HOME/shared/etc/cust/des_arch/da_window.dofile
//       $MGC_HOME/etc/cust/des_arch/da_window.dofile
//       $HOME/mgc/userware/des_arch/da_window.dofile
//
//    All units are in pin spacing units (1 pin grid).

$stroke_65456() Stroke 65456	Flips horizontally selected objects around the basepoint. If a single instance is selected it will be first disconnected and reconnected after flipping.
$stroke_5() Stroke 5	Does a View Centered if the value of the mt_pan_mode internal state variable is set to @single.
$stroke_654() Stroke 654	Closes the active window if the value of the mt_stroke_mode internal state variable is set to @close.
$key_f5c() Control-F5	Performs the MT error checking on the sheet or the symbol.
$key_control_r() Control-R	Redraws the display.
$key_lmb2s() Double-Click Shift-LMB	Displays the Change Part View by List dialog box.
