Object selection and dragging now works the way most users expect when coming from other software. Support for buses of arbitrary signals, custom wire and junction colors per net, alternate pin functions or other specialty needs. A number of improvements to the PCB editor’s capabilities, including support for rounded (arc) track routing, hatched zone fills, rectangle primitives, new dimension styles and feel, including a new design language used for all tool icons, a new default color theme, and support for dark window themes on Linux and macOS.

Additionally, PCB etc.) and external models (integrated circuit models from a vendor, for example). First-class support for "Do Not Populate" components. Components marked as DNP are displayed in the Schematic Editor desired.
