Forward annotate an updated schematic

e14 Contributor

Hello,

 

  I am new to Eagle. I made a schematic and generated a layout. After arranging the components and doing part of the routing, I realised I had to connect the jumper pins. So I went back to schematic and added 2 jumpers & connected the signal wires. In the PCB layout, I found the 2 jumpers pads but not the airwires.

 

Is there any way to get the air wires in the PCB.

 

Thanks,

Arvidn Gupta.

    First, on the board perform a RATSNEST

    If that does not make the airwires appear then move over to the schematic.

    The probable cause is the NETs are not connected to your jumper.

    Perform a move on your jumper part. If the nets dont move with the part that

    is you problem.

    Ensure you use NET and not WIRE when you connect parts.

     

    All the best

    Yes, That exactly is the problem. When I move the jumpers in the schematic, the wires dont move. Also, I had used wires instead of nets. When I tried to replace them wih nets, after doing so and checking their property, it still was showing "wire" only. Pls. let me know how to convert the wire to net and if there is any way of fixing the net/wire to the jumper (I tried by double left clicking, it did not work).
