I hope there will be a faster way. You should be able to quickly check connectivity between nodes by doing (from the command line) "goto <label1>" and "goto <label2>". Also, you can select the paint under each label, in turn, and do "getnode". Magic only considers one of the two labels (the global one, in your case) to be "definitive". When asked for the network name (as in the "getnode" command), magic will always return the definitive name. However, when told to do something with the network (as in the "goto" command), it will accept the name of any label attached to the network as an alias for the network name. > Also, while using iroute to route within a cell I managed to get a > segmentation fault! Should I post the details to the developers' list? Just send me the details. I have not looked at iroute throughout all the recent development, so it doesn't really surprise me that it is broken. Hopefully the fix is simple. Regards, Tim
