Zusammenfassung:	In a disclosed example, nets are used to represent connections between elements on different pages of an electronic drawing in a software package for computer aided drawings. Previews for these connections are automatically generated, such as during an automated inventory of the electronic drawing. The automatically-generated connection previews are stored in memory, such as in a preview database, for subsequent recall and display. The user may select a net to recall and display the previously generated connection preview. The user may then select the displayed preview to be added to a dynamic workspace, such as by clicking on the connection preview using a pointing device. Elements and connections added to the dynamic workspace are fully editable from the dynamic workspace. Any changes made in the dynamic workspace are updated to the pages containing the changed elements.
