gEDA-user: select entire net/apply netname

Hi, I've got two related questions pertaining to connecting nets. Q1: Is there a way to apply one net name to a group of selected net segments? Presently, I'm 2x-clicking each segment to edit, then pasting netname, hitting enter twice to apply the setting... Q2: Is there a way to select all net

Unfortunately there's nothing in the gerbers to indicate where they came from. The schematic (a pdf) has a reference to Protel in it, which may or may not be a clue. On Thu, 2008-01-24 at 15:30 +0100, Stefan Petersen wrote: Hi again! BTW I forgot to ask, is it possible to determine which CAD

To set a net's name you only need to add the net=this_net_name to one segment of a group of connected net segments. gnetlist is smart enough that it will name the entire group of connected net segments. If you have two non-connected net segments that you want to be on the same net then each

gEDA-user: pcb colors

How does one use the ~/.pcb/colors/Default file? I have not found how to get pcb to use .Xdefaults or the ~/.pcb/colors/Default file. I used to have some different colors defined and no more.. A recent compile and install did not create this dir after I moved it away as an experiment...

Thanks for all the tips. I will miss being able to select a segment, right-click, and choose select entire net. It makes browsing a new design (or digging up an old one) a lot easier... Well, I might add that in once I've gotten familiar with the code ;) Steve Meier wrote: yep.. good
