You can also use some time of
property (min line width) or something of that sort and highlight the
property. You can also do like bus groups etc. I think
there are probably many different method for what you need to do. I
hope it helped.

You can also create a "group" of nets and hilite the groups.
Use shadow mode to make them stand out. I also use filled pads and do not select nohilightfont in Setup / Preferences / Display.

Thanks for your comments. How about if for tens of nets? Do I have to manually highlight the net and change “permanent highlight color” one by one for so many nets? Is there any some like automatic function?

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.

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
