Floating gate search

Hi,

Regarding Schematic Editor 5.10.41.500, is there any search method to detect floating gates? "floating gates" in this case means for example floating inverter input connecting several gates only, which does not flashing as warning and can not be found by "find marker". 

 

Thanks,

    Hi jugemu1234

    By default, floating instance pins will be flagged as warning. I think perhaps your rules setup has the check set to "ignore. Please try this:

    a. In the schematic editor, go to "Check->Rules Setup"
    b. Under "Logical" tab, do you have "Floating input pins" set to "ignore"?
    c. If yes, please set it to "warning" or "error"

    Hope that I had not misunderstood your question.

    Best regards
    Quek
