Simple Highlight Problem...

archive
archive over 19 years ago

When I highlight nets in allegro 15.5 just a corner of the pins when I click on them. It's just an annoyance to have search for a segment of colored circles to find the nets I need. Is there a way to have the highlight function fill the circle on the pin?
Thanks

    Try setting the following env variable and restart the editor

    edit ~user/pcbenv/env # file
    set DISPLAY_NOHILITEFONT

    In addition to setting the DISPLAY_NOHILITEFONT, you may want to experiment with turning on and off the, "filled pads" and "Cline endcaps" Display options. They are found under the Setup pull-down menu; Setup => Drawing Options (Display tab)
