    In what context are you talking about a default? Most of the time you explicitly enter a bus name so it would be useful to know which part of the application and what you are trying to do when such a default might be needed. Please mention the version you're using too. Kind Regards, Andrew

    Hi Andrew,


    I'm using Schematic Editor IC6.1.5-64b.500.12.

    And in Options => Editor => Net Names, the default "Bus Range Order" is "ascending".

    For example, I am connection the top scheamtic with two block, blockA and blockB. In blockA, there's a pin AA<3:0>, and in blockB, there's a pin BB<3:0>. AA<3:0> and BB<3:0> are connected in top. If I do not explicitly enter the bus name, the default name would be net001<0:3>. It  causes cofusions sometimes...

    envSetVal("schematic" "netNameRangeDescend" 'boolean t)

    This will have impact next time you open a schematic. If you need to change it in the current cellView, you can use:

    dbSetNetNameDescend(geGetEditCellView() t) ; or nil

    There's also a function, dbIsNetNameDescend(geGetEditCellView()) which will tell you whether you're in descend mode.

    More details can be found in solution 11185586.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
