Description

The Detach Wire From Terminal detaches previously attached vertices of WireFlex from existing CableTerminal. Attachments of vertices are removed from special properties of WireFlex, for details see WireFlex Properties.

Detachment does not change existing terminal or wire positions. The electrical connection between terminal and wire no longer exists. The terminal properties from the Net group are updated accordingly.

When the CableTerminal is moved afterwards, the detached wire vertices stay in place. When the wire is edited in the Cables Edit the detached vertices can be moved freely.
