Posted - 05 Mar 2015 : 11:46:31 Hello, when I do cam/plot, I get this message: Design has incomplete connectivity. Those messages are ok, but for this one, no way I can see incomplete connectivity. Is it possible to show uncomplete connectivity? It does not shows in design rule check
Thank you.

Posted - 09 Mar 2015 : 10:46:48 The reason there were these DRC errors was because some of the pads in technology were set to be un-plated, therefore the pads on top and bottom would not be joined. Correcting these removed most of those errors.
This left two net split errors, those being on net GND. This was because from the import there were thermal spokes for some of the pads in track form, which Pulsonix does not need. The pads had then been moved but the spokes had stayed in place with the net on them. So to sort this, the copper template was cleared, the pads turned off in view to delete the tracked spokes, then the template re-poured.

Posted - 05 Mar 2015 : 15:57:55 There's another easy way.
If you have the "connections" set visible -- you can zoom in... and then bring up the "FIND" box and select "Connections".
For any connection you click, it will show you where on the PCB the open connection is left.
Every connection you complete disappears from the find box in real time OR you can hit SHFT-O to optimize the current connections on screen which updates the find box as well.
ESPECIALLY do this after a copper pour to catch isolated pour segments and disconnected pins/nets to the pour.
You don't need to DRC the design yet... but definitely DRC when you think you have everything done.
Posted - 05 Mar 2015 : 13:21:18 You can also use the DRC Errors dockable window, where you can select each error and it will be shown in view. Then the error details are available in the error's properties.
Posted - 05 Mar 2015 : 13:09:56 Yes, and when I use net connectivity, it tells me, 70 uncomplete connetctiviti error.
And tell me where to send my design file? when I try to upload here it tells me: 500 - Internal server error.
Thank you

Posted - 05 Mar 2015 : 12:48:38 Hello..
A simple graphic way is to only have connection switched on. DRC should tell you where, using the net connectivity check. If you send the design to support, I will tell you where it is.
