Auto-Wire two points

The auto-wire feature in Capture allows you to connect any two points (part pins and / or wires) on a schematic page.

To wire two points on a page (pin-to-pin, pin-to-wire or wire-to-wire).

1. From the Place menu, choose Auto Wire then choose Two Points.
   Or click the Auto Connect two points button on the Draw toolbar.
   Capture is now in the Auto-Wire mode. Notice the cursor changes to the Auto-Wire cursor.
2. Click the pin or wire to start the net.
   As you move the cursor across the page, notice a wire, from the start pin or wire, is formed. And the wire stretches as you move across the page.
3. Click the pin or wire to end the net.
   A wire is created between the start and end points.
4. Choose the selection tool to exit the Auto-Wire mode or go back to step 2 to Auto-Wire other pairs of pins and wires on the page.

Use this feature to short two pins on a part.
