    You can modify the wire defined at a right angle. You can replace the right angle bend while maintaining the original wire connections to the components.

    Note: This tool terminates if the bend attempts to connect two different wire networks or if the bend bypasses more than a single right-angle turn.

    1. Click Schematic tab ac.menuaro.gif Edit Wires/Wire Numbers panel ac.menuaro.gif Modify Wires drop-down ac.menuaro.gif Bend Wire.icon_cmd_ace_bend_wire.png
    2. Select one of the two wires that make up a right-angle turn.
    3. Select the opposing wire that makes up the right-angle turn.

      The additional wire segments are added based on the right-angle direction.

    4. Right-click to exit the command.
