Can I display connections for a node?

Hi all,

Can I display connections about only one node using the below function?

Schematic: Options->DISplay->Show Direct Connections

Or How can I realize it by SKILL?

Regards,

Ichiro

    Thanks for pointing that out Matthias. I was going to suggest an alternative approach, using Options->Display->Dynamic Net Highlighting which will dynamically highlight all connections on the net you hover over - also available via View->Net Highlighting. This can be enabled with SKILL:

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

    Thanks,
