I'm a young engineer with extensive experience working on EAGLE. My interests include Power Supply design and LED solid state lighting, and I'm always impressed by a well designed PCB.

  • hi,

     

    i'm looking for a way to highlight a net or a part in the schematic window and have the same net or part highlighted in the PCB layout window.

     

    The idea here is that I would like to visually confirm that all parts and nets on the schematic are also on the board.

     

    is there a way to do this?

     

    thanks,

    Hi Tony,

     

    I can understand that initially you'll want to do that but with time

    you'll be able to rely on EAGLE's F/B annotation.

     

    Ideally you would want a dual monitor setup, but most don't have that.

    What you do then is show both editors on the same screen, resize the

    windows so that they share the monitor equally. Now if you activate the

    show command on the schematic you can click on the various nets and see

    them light up on the board.
