Hello everyone,
I know that this has been brought up before but I'll raise it to the top
again.
While routing, it would useful to be able to highlight a net (or group of
nets) permanently until the next show command to turn the highlight off.
Right now, the highlighting goes away on the next command which really
isn't very helpful.
I'll even suggest syntax:
show ^ u1 u2;
This would persistently highlight those components.
show ^ u3 u4;
This would highlight U3 and U4 with persistence while keeping U1 and U2
highlighted as well.
show !;
This would clear the persistence and nothing would be highlighted
show ! ^ u5 u6;
This would clear anything that was highlighted persistently and then
highlight U5 and U6 with persistence. Of course, this should work with all
named objects (nets, traces, devices, ...)
This seems like it should be a relatively easy change and would be great
help during manual routing specifically.
Cheers,
James.
