Layout > Nets opens the Nets dropdown menu; the same drop-down menu is also available via the right-click context menu of the Layout Editor. Make choicesfrom the following commands to select nets and view net violations.
List
Opens the Design List window. The Design List window lists the name of each net, along with Color and Highlighting controls. Each net has an assigned color. The color is used when the geometry is colored by net or when a net is highlighted. Each net has a check box to activate Highlighting. A highlighted net is displayed opaque when transparency is active.
Select Physically Connected
Selects all primitives, vias and pins physically connected to the currently selected items in the currently active design instance (selections in the Layout Editor cannot cross multiple levels of hierarchy). Vias and pins with plated holes are followed across layers. Connectivity through primitives in subcircuits and footprints is also followed (unless the subcircuit is a blackbox, in which case it owns its own independent stackup).
Select Net Connected
Selects all items on the same nets as the currently selected items.
Toggle Net Highlight
Toggles the highlighting for all objects in the same nets as the currently selected items.
Select All Net Violations
Starting at the selected objects, the physically connected objects are checked for net violations. An error is reported for all physically connected objects belonging to a different net and the item in error is selected.
Select First Violation
Starting at the selected objects, the physically connected objects are checked for net violations. As soon as a physically connected object belonging to a different net is detected, an error is reported and the item in error is selected. At this point the check stops.
Show Selected Nets Only
This command results in making only selected nets visible.
Show All Nets
This command results in making all nets visible.
