Highlight Airwires

tmartin

What is the command or process to locate very small airwires?  Ratsnest is identifying one airwire; I can't see it (I have turned off the trace layers in an effort to aid in identifying its location).

    Ratsnest is identifying one airwire; I can't see it (I have turned

    off the trace layers in an effort to aid in identifying its location).

     

    SET CATCH_FACTOR 0; ROUTE  (enter) click in board ...

     

    or set

     

    Options - Set - Misc - Catch factor = 0

     

    ROUTE click in board ...

     

    My opinion is that this is a bad solution to a common problem. I have

    earlier suggested to emphasize very small segments of airwire much the same

    way as 0-length airwires. Of course this will depend on zoom factor, but

    should be doable.

    I hope we will see an improvement in a future version.
