Using the Sub Nets Colours Tab
This tab is used to allow sub nets to be displayed in their own colour and to control the display of connections on a given sub net, independent of the global connections display option.
If you check the Use Own Colour option alongside a sub net name, all items on this sub net will be drawn in the colour shown in the Colour column. This is useful for highlighting specific sub nets prior to working on them. This option is in addition to the Mark Net command.
The Display Connection option forces the connections for the given sub net on, even when the global option for connections is off. This is useful when routing critical sub nets.
Note: the Context Menu on this dialog allows you to apply the current value to all sub nets using Apply to entire Column.
The priority order for use of the own colour for a connection is differential pair, signal path, sub net and net.
For individual sub nets, these options can also be set through the Properties dialog.
