Bug Description
The human eye is very good at sorting things according to colour. There are several wires crossing each other and while there is a red dot to show a connection, using different colours is significantly more obvious (for non intersecting wires).
You already have Object properties, with the first drop down list as Color. This has meaning in a lot of the objects, but for a net object it is null. Since you have all the pieces in place, I would request that you use the usual color drop down control to allow me to set the value of net objects. (I would add line objects as well, even if I don't have an immediate use for it at this stage.)
If the user makes a change, then you implement it in the object. I have already modified the *.sch file to make this change, but it would be much nicer if it were part of the Object properties GUI. That would save me the trouble of trying to figure out from the text file, exactly which line to modify, and what numerical value to choose.
Overall you have a very nice package and fixing this detail would help me. (I can get the job done as is, but it is a clumsy solution.)
Thanks,
Ilan
