Don't forget, while âveâ is View Extents, âevâ alters all invisible
text and attributes making them visible!

It is not like âenâ which just toggles the display mode to show
invisible text, but âevâ actually changes the entities.  If you
don't realize what happened and undo it right away, you will
basically screw up the whole schematic.  (I think âevâ action
should be removed or at least prompt for confirmation; I've said so
before on this list.)
