Component Highlighting

archive
archive over 17 years ago

If I use version 16.0 I get one result for highlighting components and another if I use 16.01. In version 16.0 if I highlight a symbol on the schematic it shows on the PCB; when I select another symbol it unhighlights the previous one and highlights the new one. I can hold down the control key to select multiple components.

However, on 16.01 it seems to make any selections cumulative. I keep having to go back and un-highlighting the components. So, some questions. Is this the way it should be working and is there a place to set it back to the 16.0 version? What is the file name an location where these preferences are stored? Thanks

Sandy
