Featured Layout Highlight: Routing Enhancements 

Routing Enhancements: In VX.2.7, an option has been added to “add partially selected traces” to a selection, giving users the ability to delete traces, while leaving existing component fanouts for later use. Manual saw tuning has been enhanced so that saw patterns now have an editable tuning box, making it easier to edit the pattern. Also, the ability to swap pins during routing has been added.
