To increase comprehension when to best use these previously introduced dialogs, here is a case example: Let's assume you want to do a test or let someone do a test and thus need to select certain test points and export the list to e.g. MS Excel.

Step 1: Selection

There are two ways to select something:

Method 1:

1. Search for a test point in your visualisation and select it
2. Right-click on it and select "Properties"
3. Double-click on the desired attribute e.g. geometry

Method 2:

1. Right-click on the layer containing your test points and select "Show Attribute Histogram" to get a list of all properties and their respective values. This method requires knowing the property and value you are searching for, e.g. property geometry and there values marked with a tp underscore marking them as test points.
2. Select one or more values and then right-click and chose "Select all"

Step 2: Getting the list

The next step is the same for both methods. Once you have selected the needed properties by using one of the methods above, you have to call the "Selection Buffer via "Start » List". It lists all the attributes of your selected components your test adapter supplier would need to do his work. The list shows the layer, object, type, position x/y, and the net you can test with the individual test point and can easily be copied by right-clicking and selecting "Copy data to Clipboard" and be pasted anywhere you like.
