Nets

Select any part or component to quickly visualize where it is used across the views and the net it is connected to.

Toggle Highlight nets in the bottom right corner of the Layout, Schematic and Connection views to show the entire net or just individual components.

View a Connector’s Wires

Selecting a Connector will show all wires it is connected to and their path through the harness.


Looking inside a Bundle

Selecting a Bundle will highlight the wires going through it.


See a Wire’s Net

A Wire selected in any view will carry through to all the other views, showing both the wire and the net it is connected to.


View where Parts are used

Selecting a Part in the Parts screen will highlight where it is used in the other views.


View a Cavity’s Parts

Selecting a connector cavity, or left-clicking its pin on a pinout, highlights the parts that go into it in the Parts view: the contact or cavity plug actually loaded in that cavity (including one that comes from the connector configuration rather than being assigned by hand), the connector’s part, and the parts of the wires and cables ending on it. Selecting a wire likewise highlights the contacts at each end.

Diodes and Resistors

A net stops at a Diode or Resistor: the wires on one side are on a different net from the wires on the other. Selecting a wire highlights only its own side, while selecting the diode or resistor itself highlights both. Signals, and the colour and part a new wire picks up from the wires already on its net, follow the same rule.

Select Wires on Net

All the wires on the same net can be selected by right-clicking a wire on the Schematic view and selecting Select wires on net, or by selecting a wire and pressing the S key. This is a quick way to assign a Wire part to all wires on the same net.
