 Hi,

I'm using VXL and I would to create a label from a shape net property, then I would attach it to the related net. Is there a way to do that?

 

Regards,

Giuseppe

    Giuseppe,

    You didn't say which version you're using, but in IC615 the Create->Label command has an "auto" mode which will create a label from the net name (it's actually a textDisplay, and so if the net name changes the label will too). You can drag the middle mouse button through several wires to label them in one go - look at the options form and look at the prompts in the CIW.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
