how to use Connect by Name Highlighting to highlight only one net?

when I have a big schematic in virtuoso, Net highlighting cannot find the very small net without zoom in/out. Connect by Name Highlighting can connect all nets by virtual connection, but too many nets to find that one i need in those same color highlight nets. Is there a simply way to deal with my problem? Thanks for your any answers.

    It's not entirely clear to me what you are hoping for, but another possibility would be to go to Check→Rules Setup, and then the Names tab, and change Connection By Name to warning. Then do a Check→Current CellView. This will put a marker on every net connected by name, and you could then use Check→Find Marker (turning on Zoom to Markers) and click on the specific net marker you are looking for? This will auto-zoom into where the net connected by name is.
