Interface ConfigUpdate

Should EEvision optimize the current schematic automatically whenever it changes? This typically leads to clearer schematics, but creates more movement when incrementally expanding the schematic.

The value of this option is a combination of bits which individually control schematic optimization on certain events.

The value of the setting is an arbitrary combination of these bits.

Determines whether EEvision's autoZoom mode is active or not.

EEvision has an autoZoom mode, in which the schematic is zoomed automatically to fit the canvas whenever the schematic changes.

Limitation: Expanding and shrinking the connectors of ECU components is currently not covered by the autoZoom mode.

Flags to be used when switching to logicalMode. They have the following meaning:

Determine how buses (i.e., wires with type EdbWireTBUS) should be displayed in EEvision.

• "std": use the default style for the wire
• color value (either hexadecimal RGB value like "#FF00FF" for red or one of the SVG color names): Display the wire with the specified color.

Default wire color for the bus wires.

Which attribute should be shown next to cavities of (L)ECUs?

The update of Nlview's color scheme. Using null resets the color scheme to Nlview's default (lightblue). Using null or the empty string for individual keys resets the corresponding color to the default.

Which component attributes should be shown in addition to the component name above the component?

Which connector attributes (of ECUs and inliners) should be shown next to the connector?

If true, unconnected “pins” of splices and eyelets are displayed; otherwise they are hidden. This feature is useful to see whether all wires that connect to a splice or eyelet are currently displayed in EEvision.

When running extract, the number of components in the result can be limited. The value 0 means: no limit.

Determine how ground wires (i.e., wires with type EdbWireTGROUND) should be displayed in EEvision.

• "std": use the default style for the wire
• color value (either hexadecimal RGB value like "#FF00FF" for red or one of the SVG color names): Display the wire with the specified color.

Default wire color for ground wires.

If this property has value true, then the extraction algorithms (see EEvisionAPI.ExtractOne, EEvisionAPI.ExtractPaths, and EEvisionAPI.ExtractSteiner) take ground wires into account; otherwise these algorithms do not traverse ground wires.

Color used for highlighting matching connectors in a hierarchical design. The value must be a hexadecimal RGB-value of the form "#RRGGBB".

Determine how high-voltage wires (i.e., wires with type EdbWireTHV) should be displayed in EEvision.

• "std": use the default style for the wire
• color value (either hexadecimal RGB value like "#FF00FF" for red or one of the SVG color names): Display the wire with the specified color.

Default wire color for the high-voltage wires.

EEvision offers the possibility to use a web service for licensing and to restrict the used license to either a feature-based license or a unit-based license. The values have the following meaning:

• "units": Use a unit-based license. If no unit-based license is available, licensing fails.
• "feature": Use a feature-based license. If no feature-based license is available, licensing fails.
• null: First try unit-based licensing; if no unit-based license is available, try feature-based licensing. Only if both fail, licensing fails.
• URL: Use a web service for licensing.

Flags to be used when switching to logicalMode. They have the following meaning:

Also see GuiConfig.signalAttr.

Determine how logical connections (i.e., wires with type EdbWireTLOGICAL) should be displayed in EEvision.

• "std": use the default style for the wire
• color value (either hexadecimal RGB value like "#FF00FF" for red or one of the SVG color names): Display the wire with the specified color.

Default wire color for the logical wires.

When running PluginAPI.ExtractOne in “smart” mode (i.e., with {@link ExtractOneOptions}.smart missing or set to true), then mark the flow direction from the “smartstop” node with arrows along the wires.

Determines how multicores are rendered in EEvision.

List of plugins to be loaded by default.

Determine how power wires (i.e., wires with type EdbWireTPOWER) should be displayed in EEvision.

• "std": use the default style for the wire
• color value (either hexadecimal RGB value like "#FF00FF" for red or one of the SVG color names): Display the wire with the specified color.

Default wire color for the power wires.

If this property has value true, then the extraction algorithms (see EEvisionAPI.ExtractOne, EEvisionAPI.ExtractPaths, and EEvisionAPI.ExtractSteiner) take power wires into account; otherwise these algorithms do not traverse power wires.

The selection appearance. If true, then selecting a component really only selects the body of the component; if false, then selecting the component also selects all its connectors.

Color of the rectangle that is drawn when selecting objects via the rectangleSelection mechanism.

Allow the selection of objects using <Ctrl> + dragging the mouse with the left button pressed. The values have the following meaning:

Display the schematic rotated by 90° (i.e., top to bottom instead of left to right).

If true, live search includes cavities when selecting "Any". Additionally, the "Cavity" entry is enabled.

Which attributes should be taken into account in the live search? The field is an array of attribute names.

Maximum number of results to be shown in the live search window.

Color used for highlighting selected objects. If set to null, no selection color is applied, but the object is drawn with ticker lines.

This setting defines a wire attribute that is only consulted when computing the logical view – as done when restarting the EEvision GUI with the URL parameter fsig=signalAttr – meaning the signalAttr value is passed to the fsig parameter (this logical view is, e.g., triggered when switching to Logical Mode in the More menu). If this signalAttr setting is not specified, then an empty string will be passed to fsig.

Should the attributes in the info window and balloon window be sorted alphabetically?

If true, let Nlview reserve space such that the whole wire label can be displayed. Otherwise, the label might be shortened to save space, and the complete label is only shown when hovering over the wire.

Color used for highlighting objects that were loaded or extracted by the user. This allows to distinguish these objects from others that were added either interactively or by the extraction algorithms. If the value is null, not start color is applied.

If true, the value of the attribute whose name is given in CoreConfig.wireBotAttr is shown as a wire label (typically below the wire).

If CoreConfig.wireBot is true, the value of the wire attribute whose name is given here is shown as a label (typically below the wire).

Formatting information (foreground/background color) for displaying the additional wire attribute (see CoreConfig.wireBot and CoreConfig.wireBotAttr). It must be empty or one color (defining the background color of the displayed attribute value) or two colors separated by a space (defining the background and foreground colors of the displayed attribute value).

For example wireBotFmt = "#ffd080 #000000" displays the attribute value black on beige background.

The wires of these types are preserved when switching to wire filter mode. Wires of all types that are not mentioned here are removed. That means if the value is an empty array, then the resulting filtered EDB does not contain any wires anymore.

Possible values:

If true, EEvision displays a small color marker on the wire that shows the color of the wire's cover.

Switch between showing the wire name or an arbitrary wire attribute above the wire. If false, the wire name is shown; if true, the value of the attribute whose name is given as the value of CoreConfig.wireTopAttr is displayed.

Name of the wire attribute whose value should be shown above the wire (instead of the wire name) if CoreConfig.wireTop is true.
