Windows or Linux?

It should highlight to two footnotes, although I’m not sure I’ve tested courtyard errors.

Try a track too close to a pad, and it should highlight the track and the pad.

(But probably not on Windows, as it’s based on the same code we use for selection disambiguation highlighting.)
