Is there a way to view flylines (lines between pins that need to be connected) in the openroad gui after floorplanning or placement? Looking for some way to figure out why the routing stage is stuck with overflow messages.

I've never seen such a thing...

Usually it will end up being a pin that is inaccessible from my experience

I couldn’t find a menu command, but this seems to work as a tcl command.
Copy code
select -type Net -name * -highlight 1

After loading layout, click on any std cells from layout and right hand side
Inspector
>
ITerms
and roll over the cursor and flylines enabled.

@Vijayan Krishnan thanks! I couldn’t find any way using the mouse to easily select multiple nets. I could highlight them one at a time, but that gets tedious if there are dozens of nets you want to check at the same time to estimate congestion.
