Help not blinking layer

    Hello,
    I use Opus4.3.4, in particular the Verify/LVS probe function after an
    LVS run. I set "cross probe matched" and when I select "Add
    Net" in the layout view, the correspondent net is highlighted in the
    schematic view. Perfect! The only problem is that the schematic net is
    turned to white but it does not blink! So for me it is hard to find
    that. Does someone know how can I set this marker blinking?

    Thank you,
    Camelot

    This could be due to a couple of things. Either in the tech file the layer is
    not defined as being blinking, or you don't have enough colours available
    and the colourmap has filled up.

    You should be able to set the UNIX environment variable:

    CDS_USE_PRIVATE_CMAP

    to YES (if my memory is correct - check the documentation) which should
    help here - although you'll then probably end up with the whole window
    changing colour as you move in and out of it.

    Better still, use something more recent than 4.3.4 (which was released over 11
    years ago) which supports 24 plane colours.

    Andrew.
