The RatsNest tool checks the project cables database against the drawing. If connections defined in the cables database can be reproduced in the drawing because the SysNames and Ports exist, a cable is placed.

This tool requires that the Project Cables table be populated.

[Cleanup] - Applies the auto-router to all cables in the drawing.

Avoid Other Cables - Auto-router avoids other cables on cleanup.

[Fillet] - Applies fillets to ALL cables in the drawing.

Distance - Fillet distance in 100/DU.
