Property Displays Tab (Properties Dialog Box)
The Property Displays tab controls the display of component properties on the schematic. Displayed properties appear as text labels on the schematic.
The Property Displays tab controls only the display of labels associated with component parameters. It does not enable or define those parameters as outputs for simulation. For more information on selecting output parameters, see Setting the Outputs for Simulation.
To add a property to those displayed on the schematic:
- Click Add. A new row appears.
- Click the Name field and select the parameter you want to add from the drop-down menu.
- Click the Visibility field to select the type of information you want to display:
- None — No label displayed.
- Name
— Only the parameter name is displayed (for example, R).
Note:
The output property displays of types Value, Both, Evaluated Value and Evaluated Both support animation during simulation to display the current value. However, this is not supported for input properties as their value is specified by the users.
- Value — Displays the component value. This can be a single value (for example, 10000) or an expression (for example, 10000*5).
- Both — Displays the parameter name and its value, for example, R = 10000 or R=10000*5.
- Evaluated Value – Displays the evaluated value of an expression that has been used for the value of a parameter, for example, 50000 for the expression 10000*5.
- Evaluated Both – Displays the parameter name and the evaluated value, for example, R = 50000 for the expression 10000*5.
- Click the Location field for a parameter to specify the location for the displayed parameter and/or value. The locations are Left, Top, Right, Bottom, Center. When you have set the location with the cursor in the schematic, the Location field has the entry Custom.
To remove a property from display on the schematic:
- Select the property you want to remove from display in the Property Display list and click Remove.
- Click the Visibility field of the property you want to remove from display and select None.
