A method for creating a tool for enhancing navigation through a schematic
display of a netlist is provided. In the method, the display of the
netlist is partitioned into multiple pages. A vector is inserted into one
of the partitioned pages and then a marker is inserted into the vector.
Whether a node of the netlist is a source node or a destination node is
determined. Based on whether the node is a source or a destination node,
a page reference is inserted before or after the dummy page. In one
embodiment, the method is incorporated as program instructions on a
computer readable medium. A computer implemented system and a graphical
user interface for navigating through a register transfer level display
of an integrated circuit are also provided.
