LT Spice Trick

Not everyone may know this one.

Given a series string of unconnected parts, you can select the wire
tool, the pencil icon, and draw one long line through all the parts to
do the connections. You can even turn corners.

John Larkin has been going to too many Trump supporter rallies. The "not everyone" who doesn't know this must be a rather small proportion of the LT Spice users.

Flyguy probably wouldn't, but he doesn't seem to use LT Spice either. For somebody who posts to an electronic design user group, he  posts very little about electronic design - absolutely nothing that I can recall.

John Larkin isn't much better - he does post about electronics, but nothing about designing circuits. It is more about blowing up components.

There&rsquo;s a control panel setting to turn that behavior off, ie to allow
straight line connections between pins.
