get_report_panel_column_index
Usage
get_report_panel_column_index [-id <table_id>] [-name <table_name>] <col_name>
Options
-id <table_id>: Id of panel from which to get column index
-name <table_name>: Name of panel from which to get column index
<col_name>: Column name
Description
Gets the column index of the specified panel column name.
Column name refers to the specified name in the header row. The column index is a non-negative integer
for an existing column. The column index is -1 if the column name is not found in the panel.
Using the column index and panel id provides faster data access than using column name and panel name.
Column indices and panel ids that you have cached may become outdated or invalid if the report is
unloaded or reloaded. This error occurs after compilation or with calls to the "project_close",
"unload_report", and "load_report" commands.
Column and panel names support wildcards.
The table of contents portion of the Compilation Report window shows short panel names for better
readability. However, the panel name used by this command is the full panel name as shown in the
right-hand side frame of the Compilation Report window or the .rpt file of the corresponding
command-line executable. For example, the table of content shows the path "Analysis &
Synthesis||Summary". However, the corresponding full path used by this Tcl command is "Analysis &
Synthesis||Analysis & Synthesis Summary".
