The Show Terminals Button: Show All Terminals

The Show Terminals button in the Extract menu displays the terminals in the physical layout which correspond to terminals in the electrical schematic. Electrical devices and subcircuits may have terminals associated with their nodes. These terminals are used to identify the connection points in the physical database. During association, the terminals are automatically placed at the appropriate point in the physical cell.

Should association fail, unplaced terminals are grouped in an array to the lower left of the physical cell's bounding box. Also potentially visible after failure, to the right of the physical layout, are any unassigned subcircuit labels.
