Hi all!
I'm an EE with several years of PCB design experience trying to transition from Altium to EAGLE and had a quick question about moving groups of nets.
I route a lot of digital buses in my projects and it seems like my schematic approach was relying on how Altium operates when moving nets. I'd typically set up groups of 8 (both address/data mapping to 8b wide ports on my microcontroller) then rearrange the "sets" so that the rats nest on the BRD would route nicely.
I'd achieve this by dragging and dropping the sets around the schematic and in Altium:
- on drag the nets connected to the part pins would disconnect
- on drop it would reconnect them to pins in the new destination
Is something like this possible in EAGLE? I'm having a hard time searching since the keywords don't really refer to the issue I'm having.
If it makes sense, I'd like to take this set and move it down can move that rearrange sets easily when optimizing routing, I know I could reconnect each to a bus but that would mean reconnecting every net each move.
Here is how dragging behaves in Altium for reference, note how the nets connect on drag:
Thanks!
