If your power is on a plane, that is a specific layer, set the etch for
that layer as color = white
Then when you highlight different nets for pwr, such a +5v, +12v, or
what ever, the high light color will show up better
You'll notice had you set the etch as color, especially a dark color,
your highlight wouldn't work out as you expected

Once I am going to be working on a specific project for a period
of time I just create a script and hi-lite the nets per the color I want
and then call up the script whenever I want to see those nets high
lighted. For example, I usually create a script called hipwr to hi-lite
standard power nets... gnd, 3.3v, 1.2, 1.8, etc... Very handy when
fanning out components and incorporating power shapes.
Good luck.

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?
Thanks,
Michael
