internal part connection and routing

Question

eagle cad v 7.2.0

i have a part (didn't design it) with 3 pads and two pins:

add=next

swap=0

G$1.+ VCC@1 VCC@2

G$1.- GND

airwire and routing only to one of the VCC pads.

airwire will not go to the other VCC pad and routing to the other pad does not resolve the airwire.

I thought that either of the two pads should satisfy the routing and remove the airwire.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

In the device editor you can either use 'connect all' or 'connect any'

to connect the pads to a pin.

The former results in the layout editor showing air wires to all pads,

the latter lets the editor be content with only one pad routed.
