Showing Newly Created Incomplete Nets Automatically

Layout XL can automatically show flight lines representing new incomplete nets you create during interactive editing. To do this,

1. In a layout window, delete a piece of routing material on a complete net.
   
   
   The system automatically shows a flight line representing the new incomplete net you created.
   
   

You control this behavior using the Automatic Highlighting options in the Annotation Browser Options form.

By default, the system highlights markers only when a new marker category is created, for example a new incomplete net.

To automatically highlight a new open marker created on an existing incomplete net, set automatic highlighting to Highlight new markers.

To give a newly-created marker the same visibility as its parent category, set automatic highlighting to Inherit from parent category.
