Changing net for entire track path

I’ve got a complicated 2 layer PCB I’m trying to reverse engineer.

One of the problems I’m running into is when I layout a long track it has a net name which sometimes is incorrect and needs to be renamed. What is the quickest way to rename the entire length of the track.

The only way I found which works is hold control and them left click on every segment of the track. Then edit and change the net name.

This is a pain if the track has 30 or 40 segments. Also if you don’t select every segment then the net name does not change.

Consider the example below. I have to delete the first and last track and then click and select each track to change the net.

Is there a quicker way, like auto select the whole length?

If you select one segment and press U a few times, it should extend the selection along more of the segments (including through vias).

Brilliant. Thanks, that was easy.
