    I wrote the following ulp to be able to unhide selected nets from the

    schematic

     

     

    #usage "<b>unhide airwires for nets grouped in schematic</b><p>"

            "intended usage: run from command line or assign to hotkey<p>"

            "THIS PROGRAM IS PROVIDED AS IS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED<p>"

            "<table cellspacing=0 cellpadding=5 border=1>"

              "<tr><td align=center>Version</td>"

                     "<td align=center>Date</td>"

                       "<td align=center>Author</td>"

                         "<td align=center>Comment</td></tr>"

              "<tr><td align=center>1.0</td>"

                     "<td align=center>2012-11-22</td>"

                       "<td align=center>lorenznl@yahoo.com</td>"

                         "<td>initial version</td></tr>"

            "</table>"

     

    if (schematic) {

       string s = "";

     

       schematic(SCH)

         SCH.sheets(SHE)

           SHE.nets(NET) {

             if (ingroup(NET))

               s += " " + NET.name;

           }

     

     

       if (s != "") {

         exit("edit .brd; ratsnest" + s + ";");

       }

    }

    I'm referring to air wires on the PCB.

    I know.

     

    But how do you unhide a net without knowing its name?

     

    You go to into the schematic and look it up, then switch back to the

    board editor and issue the "ratsnest netname" command from the command

    line.

     

    That's what the ulp is for: go to the schematic, group the net or nets

    you want and run the ulp; preferably using a hotkey. for single nets

    it might even work added to the right-click context menu.
