Re: Traces don't track Footprints during move


 

John
? To test a bit, I have drop two DIP packages on the F.Cu layer. Then I selected the "route tracks" tool and clicked on a pin of one DIP, then the other. A DRC shows no missing connections. However when I us "M" to move one if the DIPs the track remains behind. Am I missing something regarding completing the connection?

Thanks
Fritz

Fritz,
I suspect your traces are not actually connected to the footprints. I think that the traces not dragging along with the footprints is actually a symptom of disconnectedness.
Best Wishes,
John

Using past board layout tools when I move a footprint the traces drag along with it.
I cannot seem to get this to work in KiCad --i have tried "M", selecting and moving, "drag" and so forth but cannot find how to do this nor can I find it in the doc.

Any help here appreciated-

Thanks
Fritz
