We can assign the netname to the multiple pins at a same time by using following option( file- import- logic) in PCB editor.

As like that I need to de-assign the multiple pins from different nets.Is there any default option?

For dense board if need to de assign the netname for multiple pins, currently i am deleting entire nets and then I import the netlist...this process give lot of reworks. If anyone have solution for this please give your guidance.

    Hi Sriranga,

    You can de-assign pins from their existing nets using the steps outlined below:
    1. Choose Logic → Net Logic from the top menu.
    2. In the Options tab, select the Deassign radio button.
    3. (Optional) Enable Ripup Etch/Conductor if you want the connected traces to be removed automatically.
    4. In the Find filter, ensure Pins is selected.
    5. Click individual pins or drag a window to select multiple pins.
    6. The selected pins will be removed from their current nets and assigned to a dummy net.
    7. Right-click and select Done to complete the operation.
    If you later need to assign the pins back to a net, you can follow the same procedure and select the Assign option under Logic → Net Logic, then assign the desired net name to the selected pins.
    I hope this helps.
