To Work With Manipulating Wires

Trim Wires

1. Click Schematic tabEdit Wires/Wire Numbers panelTrim Wire. Find
2. Select the wire segment to remove on the drawing or type F followed by a [space] to remove multiple wires at once.
3. If you are removing multiple wires, draw a fence through the wires to trim.

A Zoom Extents is triggered when a wire runs off the screen. If this zooming back and forth becomes annoying during multiple trims, then zoom back so that all the circuitry is shown on the screen. Or press Z and [space] at the trim prompt. It triggers a Zoom Extents that persists through the rest of the trimming edits.
