Returns a property value for instances identified by arguments 2 and 3.
This function has been superseded by PropValues2 and it is not recommended for new scripts. PropValues2 has rearranged arguments allowing the schematic handle to be specified without requiring the property value to provided. It also has more convenient behaviour in the situation when there is no instance match.
| Number | Type | Compulsory | Default | Description |
| 1 | string | Yes | Property name whose value is required | |
| 2 | string | No | Use selected components if omitted | Property name to identify instance |
| 3 | string | No | All instances with property name in arg2 | Property value to identify instance |
| 4 | real | No | -1 | Schematic ID |
Property name whose value is required
Along with argument 3, if present these arguments identify the instances to be examined. If only argument 2 is specified then all instances on the specified schematic that possess that property will be used. If argument 3 is also present then the instance name and value must match argument 2 and 3 respectively. If neither are present the selected instances will be used.
See argument 2.
Schematic ID as returned by the function OpenSchematic . This allows this function to be used with a schematic that is not open or not currently selected. If omitted or -1, the currently selected schematic will be used.
Return type: string array
The function returns a string array of length equal to the number of instances identified by arguments 2 and 3. Each element will hold a value for the property specified in argument 1.
The function will return an empty vector if the specified schematic could not be found. If no instance matches arguments 2 and 3, an empty string will be returned.
