--------------- 
In Routing Electrical Connection List navigator, you can set the Display 
Format for the connection list by going to Tools --> Connection List --> 
Properties. The Display Format is always set to "Simple". How can you change 
the default setting to Full?



Solution

 Edit the "ugroute_elec.cfg" config file, and for the Connection List Display 
Formats, put the Format you want as the default setting to be on Top of the 
list, for example;


 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
 !! Connection List Display Formats !! 
 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
 ! 
 Connection List Display Format = Full 
 ! 
 Connection List Display Format = Simple 
 ! 
 Connection List Display Format = Smart 
 ! 
 Connection List Display Format = UG/Harness 



The changes you make to the Config file will ONLY take affect in a NEW part 
and using the BLANK template. If you use the Routing Templates, or any 
templates to create new parts, you will need to open the those templates and 
go into the Connection List Properties, change the Display Format .i.e Simple 
to Full, then save the Template part file.
