Missing function

Hello All, I wonder if someone can help, I have KiCad version (5.1.6)-1 and in section 7.1 in the manual

7.1. Assisted placement

Whilst moving footprints the footprint ratsnest (the net connections) can be displayed to assist the placement. To enable this the icon images/icons/modratsnest.png of the left toolbar must be activated.

I cannot see this icon, what am I doing wrong…

Thankyou in advance Neil

I suspect you follow a tutorial that is for the old toolset (legacy toolset). The modern toolset has a different paradigm how it works with ratsnest so all of these things have been retired.

Thankyou for the info, I am just looking at the page in the manual… anyway I also have a problem if I put the full rats on and move a component it dynamically shows the connections if I use connections to a pin or component not the full rats it does not is this also a problem?
