How to Highlight all nets connected to a particular pin

Dear Team,

Please see the schematic portion.This VDDA is going to many other IC’s.

May I know how do highlight all the nets connected to VDDA.

Also, if you have Net Navigator panel visible (from View → Panels) and use the Highlight Nets tools, you can see a list of all pins in that net sheet by sheet.

In addition to what eelik wrote . . .

If you click on the line going to VDDA and then use the ` key that will highlight all the connected nets on the schematic and layout.

Everything connected together is one net.
You want to highlight all the connected wires and not nets.

This is written down a bit unforfortunate, but I do agree with Priot that it’s important to get the terminology right if you want to communicate with other people (such as this forum).

A “wire” is the (usually) green thing that makes a connection (for example between a resistor and a capacitor.

a “net” is an abstract list of connections, that are all electrically connected. And both wires and labels can be used, and together they form a single net.

There is also a “netlist”, and this is a list of all the nets. the netlist defines all connections between all symbols (in the schematic) or between all footprints (on the PCB). There is just one netlist in a project, because it defines all connections.
