merging nets

Question

hello: 
 
 i have a design already made by someone. 
 
 now i have to merge net a and net b as net c on the design. 
 
 what would be the easiest way to merge two nets where shapes, clines, vias, symbols are already assigned as net a and net b? 
 
 regards 
 masa

Hello masamasa , You can use Logic > Net Logic to create or assing new nets. I have also written a sample code few days back, see if this helps you: axlCmdRegister("merge_net" '_RBG_change_shape_net ) defun( _RBG_change_shape_net () let( list(old_netname new_netname l_shapes shape_count) old_netname = "LED1" ;name of net to remove new_netname = "0" ;name of combined nets obj_count = 0 axlClearSelSet() axlSetFindFilter(?enabled '(noall "shapes" "vias" "pins") ?onButtons '("shapes" "vias" "pins")) axlAddSelectAll() l_obj = axlGetSelSet() axlClearSelSet() foreach(obj l_obj if(obj->parent->net->name == old_netname then axlChangeNet(obj new_netname) obj_count++ );this if will work for shapes and vias if(obj->net->name == old_netname then axlChangeNet(obj new_netname) obj_count++ );this if will work for pins );end foreach if(obj_count>0 then printf("%n objects changed from %s to %s.
" obj_count old_netname new_netname) else printf("No obj found connected to net %s
" old_netname) );endif );end let );end defun 
 
 ; you need to change the old_netname and new_netname based on your design.
