There are several undocumented shortcuts in LTspice IV that you might find useful:

Alt + left-click on a label, V(n008), in the waveform viewer to highlight that particular net in the schematic editor.

Figure 1.

To route wires at an angle, hold down Ctrl key as you draw them.

Text with a preceding underscore character, e.g., “_FAULT”, is displayed as an overbar, active low, digital signal.

Figure 3.

Ctrl + Alt + Shift + H temporarily highlights all hidden text within the schematic. In this example, a series resistor and parallel capacitor are encapsulated and hidden within C5 to simplify layout.
