I tried putting a disconnected line on V5DRV, and also a line to a
no-connect flag, but neither was acceptable to the ERC.
I've also tried changing the pin type (input, passive etc), and
connecting it to different random places in the hierarchical sheet.
In the hierarchical sheet V5DRV is connected to VDD on the driver IC
(the LEDs have their own supply, the driver acting as a current sink),
and therefore there's a power flag within the sheet to keep the ERC
happy. I've attached a screen-shot of the relevant part of the
hierarchical sheet.

Robert.

That would connect to a power net somewhere. I'll guess to the LED string
or power LED
You can either connect it with a line or put some form of power flag on
it, with the LEDs connected to the same net but be careful as you have
multiple copies of the driver on the cct that you make each one a
different net or erc will really complain.
