Description This command is used to turn the cursor electrical grid on or off.

The electrical grid is a special grid designed to assist you in wiring up your schematic. The electrical grid defines a range around electrical objects within which the cursor is "captured" by the object, overriding the current snap grid.

Wires, part pins, etc, are all affected by the electrical grid. With the electrical grid turned on, as you wire up your schematic, the cursor will automatically "find" electrical hot spots, making it easier to connect to electrical objects.

Use Launch the command to toggle the electrical grid status on or off.

Notes The electrical grid for the currently active schematic sheet can also be enabled/disabled in the Sheet Options tab of the Document Options dialog.
