Device name filter, for multiple devices names

alexandre.palardy — Mon, 14 Nov 2022 18:14:25 GMT

Hello

I would like to select multiple device by entering a name list.

Exemple:

I would like to select C1,C11,C12,C14

In de device manager I can't searches for more than one name:

What I would like to do is :

I know that I can create a different line for each Name, but it is not useful. I would like to copy past the list of name from the BOM.

In fact the main problem is that I can't search for a specific attribute value. For each device in my design, I have an attribute for my inventory part number. Ex: Attribute name is INV and value is R100K0603. I would like to select in my design all the part that have the attribute INV= R100K0603. So, the idea to select multiple name like C1,C2,c12 is to find a turn around to this problem. I will make a filter in my BOM file so when I select R100K0603 it will give to me the list of device name that have this inventory number. Then select all those components in my design.

Thank you for any help

Hi @alexandre.palardy

I hope you are doing well!

For your question, you can try (Name = C*)

Please check if it works for you.

@panpan_fan

(Name = C*) will select every C* named device. So it does not work for me.

Thank you for the response.

Hi @alexandre.palardy,

I hope you're doing well. For your particular situation you can use C1* and then filter down further from there. You are right that being able to filter based on attribute value would be boss. I'll add report this as a feature request.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,

Hi @jorge_garcia

Thank you for the response. Yes it will be VERY useful to filter based on attribute value.

"I'll add report this as a feature request." this is nice. Thank you
