Expand selection doesn't work as anticipated #239

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Using the "All connected" expand selection option doesn't work quite right.  
For instance if I draw a tube diode on the left and a triode on the right, then 
connect their plates with a schematic resistor, then select the triode and 
"expand all connected", it will select the triode and the resistor, but not the 
tube diode, even though they are all connected (it works if I use two triodes 
however). 

Incidentally, almost all tube diodes are intended for rectifier use and have 
two plate/cathode pairs. Unlike triodes where it is usual to show the halves of 
dual triodes separately, it is the common practice to show both diodes of the 
rectifier tube, or at least both plates if there is a common cathode.  Here are 
the common depictions of these variants:
