Schematic Revision Number

In the schematic editor I can enter a revision number via the Dialog
Sheet->Edit Title... This rev number is than printed in the title
block. There is also a log in the CIW that states the rev change:

schEditTitleBlockForm->title3->value = "1"

Is there a way to readout the revision number via a skill function? Is
rev a property or the cellview that can anyhow be accessed?

Thanks for any proposals.

Gunnar,

The property is stored as an instance property on the instance of the sheet in
the schematic.

So, if you were starting from the cellView in the current window, you could do:

cv=geGetEditCellView()
; first find the instance of the sheet
border=car(exists(inst cv~>instances inst~>master~>schType=="border"))
when(border
rev=border~>rev
)

Regards,

Andrew.
