take these factors into account. The Confirm and Deselect functions, for example, slow down
operation, but with an aim towards ensuring proper system control.
6.2.1 Net Control - Standard Behavior Preferences
Confirm on Selected Net Move
If 'yes', the user must 'commit' channel moves by clicking on a net - channels will not be moved
to a new net until this is completed (unconfirmed channel moves are represented by gray channel
icons where the channel used to be).
Confirm on Disband
If 'yes', the user must 'commit' net disbands by clicking on a different net - channels will not be
moved to the Free net until this is completed (unconfirmed channel moves are represented by
gray channel icons where the channel used to be).
Channel Double Click Behavior
There are 3 options for what happens when a channel icon is double-clicked on:
• Do Nothing - No action is taken.
• Open Settings - The settings page for that channel is opened this eliminates the need to
navigate to that channel's settings page from the main menu.
• Open Settings In New Window - The settings page for that channel is opened in a new
browser window. This eliminates the need to navigate to that channel's settings page from
the main menu.
Auto Select Net (when channel added)
If 'yes', when adding a channel to a net by clicking, the net will be automatically selected.
Clicking on channels when a net is selected will move them to the selected net, so this can make
adding many channels to a net a little faster, but may cause inadvertent connections.
Note that dragging and dropping channels into nets never causes the net to be selected, regardless
of this setting.
Auto Deselect Net (after combine)
If 'yes', when combining nets to form net groups, the originally selected net will be automatically
de-selected. (Net Groups are often comprised of just 2 nets, so enabling this can save a click, but
may cause extra clicks when additional nets are needed in the group.)
Note that dragging and dropping nets to form net groups never causes a net to be selected or de-
selected, regardless of this setting.
Deselect Cross-Net Button (after action)
If 'yes', when performing cross-net operations (adding/removing monitors or priority
connections), the selected cross-net control button is automatically de-selected.
Monitor and Priority Connections are often comprised of just 2 channels, so enabling this can
save a click. However, this will require extra clicks when additional channels are needed in the
cross-net connection.
