Use the "permanent highlight" function. This allows selection of specific colors and then you can highlight nets with various colors. I frequently use this for power/ground nets so I can quickly glance at a board and make sure shapes on my divided planes cover the correct pins/vias. /s/jar (alan.ritter@xxxxxxxxxx) http://www.mtritter.org _____ From: Michael [mailto:michaelnwwang@xxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2007 10:15 AM To: icu-pcb-forum@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [PCB_FORUM] How to make different colors for different nets Hi Group, I have seen some allegro database which had different highlight colors for different nets. It seems highlight was used. You know, in some condition, it's easier to make the layout clear by using different color for different nets. I'm interested in how to do it easily in allegro. Could anybody help me?
