Hi Orson,
the usecase for me is information reduction; sometimes you can loose the overview when too much at once is displayed.
For instance if you want to optimize only the placement of a component group, such as a DC-DC converter, the ratnest of other
components is uninteresting and could be blended out. Also it would be great to hide nets like GND where often a groundplane is used.
In summary:
* Local ratsnest for a group or selection of components (the old feature is a special case for 1 component)
* Filter for certain nets like GND
Thanks,
Torsten
Do you use it? If so, what are your use cases? Do you think it would be
better to control ratsnest visiblity per net, instead of per module?
