Design Element Sortings
Sorting Entries comprise of an (Alphanumeric, Numeric, Text) Sort Type, a Sort Expression used to sort design elements based on their properties and attributes, and an (Ascending, Descending) Sort Order.
Sort Expressions
The Sorting Entries you add in Design | Setup | Design Element Sortings use Sorting Expressions. A Sorting Expression is also specified when Expression is chosen as the Sorting Mode in the Smart Subtract Triangulations design action.
The SmartSubtract method takes a set of triangle meshes (from any type of layer triangulation). Depending on the Subtract Mode, either an attribute to order by and an order to sort by, or an attribute to group by and an order for the grouping, are required. Outputs are the subtracted triangulations.
