The present disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method for use in an electronic circuit design. Embodiments may include providing an electronic design having a plurality of geometric elements and generating a non-design element. Embodiments may further include associating the non-design element with one of the plurality of geometric elements and storing the non-design element with the one of the plurality of geometric elements. Embodiments may also include displaying, at a graphical user interface, the non-design element upon selection of the geometric element.
