[Resolved]  Net not showing up on ratsnest

rickford66

I'm using Eagle 6.3.0, and have a circuit in which a few of the circuits on the schematic do not show up on the ratsnest on the PCB.  On the schematic, they are labeled the same name, so they should be connected.  Is this a common problem and if so, what are common solutions?  Thanks.

    dropping a wire upon a pin will not connect.

    on the other hand dropping a pin onto a wire will connect.

     

    so placing (all) your copied wires as needed, then picking up the part

    and droping it in place will do the job.

    some things I'd check:

     

    - net segments are really named identically (use show command and look

    if they all are highlighted)

     

    - are the nets correctly connected to pins (move the parts around an

    see if the nets follow)

     

    - check if the airwires for that nets are hidden
