schCreateWire route method creates flight instead of full

Hi All,

I' am using schCreateWire to wire my Circuit Under Test(ex. bandgap) and it's stimulus(ex. vpulse, vpwl, gnd) automatically. Here is the context of my schCreateWire:

schCreateWire(cvId "route" "full" list(xvalf:yvalf xvalnf:yvalnf) 0.0625 0.0625 0.0)

My question is that why does this function having this context creates some "flight"(dashed type) as route method instead of "full"(solid type)? Meaning not all wires are created in solid type.

Is this a limitation of schCreateWire?

Best Regards,

Reinice

     Hi Reinice,

    This typically happens when things are too congested - you see the same behaviour when you are routing manually in the schematic editor (it's the same router underneath).

    The flight lines are still connected, but there's just not space (or the router isn't smart enough to find a route, at least not without taking a long way around) to fulfill the route.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
