Feature-highlight neighbours

Open Noitarud opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Sometimes I mesh my components together and can hardly tell the immediate circuit apart, can the neighbouring wires and components get a little highlight when I hover over something?

I'm not sure what you're asking here. You want neighboring components to highlighted when you hover over something? How would you be able to tell which component is selected then?

I was envisioning the neighbouring components to become blue (rather than cyan), I did not specify a colour just in case you immediately thought of something/someway more comfortable.

  • Adding blue (in a running circuit) will not work because (positive)green+blue would look cyan, unless you want to also change the highlight colour.
  • or perhaps a blue "glow" around all

its up to you if you want to traverse all wire links up to the next component (or just one object, but the tracing should be rather handy at times, it would highlight the whole wire loop error instead of one piece)
