The JUNCTION command is used to mark connections on nets that
cross one another. Junctions are placed by default. This option, (Auto set
junction),canalsobedeactivatedthroughthe Options/Set/Misc menu.
Nets must be drawn with the NET command, not with the WIRE
command.
Do not copy net lines with the COPY command. If you do this, the
new net lines won’t get new net names. This could result in unwanted
connections.
If the MOVE command is used to move a net over another net, or over
a pin, no electrical connection is created. To check this, you can click the
net with the SHOW command. All the connected pins and nets will be
highlighted. If a gate is moved, the nets connected to it will be dragged
along.
