Selectable Objects in Schematic Viewables

Object	Graphically Selectable	Comments
Net	Yes	Selectable through a wire, junction point etc.
Symbol	Yes	Components, fractured components and special symbols are selectable. Page borders, title blocks etc. are special symbols.
Figure	Yes	Defined as special symbol.
Pin	Yes
Junction Point	Yes	Selects the net.
Ref Des	Yes	Text that is part of a component is selected as part of the component.
Text	Yes	If the text is associated with a component or a symbol, the component or the symbol is selected. Some text may not be selectable.
Geometry	No	Usually associated with a special symbol.
Pin Pair	No	Part of a net.
Markup	Yes

Object	Equivalent in ECAD Schematics	Comments
Components		Components can be the parents of other components and connections. There can be a number of components with the same name but different full names. The full names of children include the parent name delimited with !.
Connections	Nets
Fibers	Wires
Highways	Buses
Ports	Pins	Ports are not shown under connections. Information about connections is displayed next to ports in cases of single connection, or as a connections branch under the port in cases of multiple connections. If a port is selected, the corresponding connections are highlighted in the structure.
Sheets		• To select a sheet, click in Structure Tree or Attributes list. You can select multiple sheets. • To change the sheet currently viewed, click an option in the ribbon or double-click in the Structure Tree.
Fiber Port		Most fiber ports do not have graphics or display name. They connect between these objects: • Fiber and port—Ports are connected to fiber ports rather than to connections directly, therefore they do not appear as ports under connections. • Fiber and another fiber—When the fibers belong to different connections. • Fiber and highway Fiber port attributes are not shown in Creo View even if fiber ports have attributes (properties) in Creo Schematics.
