    RibbonCableBranchInfo Class
    In This Topic
    An object representing a branch of a ribbon cable. A branch is a part of ribbon cable between two split control points, between two super pins or between a super pin and split point, such that each non-ending control point on this branch is a plain point (i.e. same number of wires goes in and out).

    Syntax
    public class RibbonCableBranchInfo
    Remarks

    Each branch contains a list of control points which lists the starting, ending and all intermediate control points on the branch. The starting and ending points are always ribbon pins or split control points. The intermediate points are always simple (non-splitting) control points or inline ribbon pins. Use this list to determine position and shape of the branch in space.

    Each branch also contains a list of wires which go through the entire branch. Use this list to determine the order of branches on the cable and the overall topology.
