Nets and Symbols Immovable in Capture 16

WallyL

I have a multiple page schematic in Capture.  Only on one of this schematic have the symbols and nets have become immovable (or locked).  When I click on the symbol and try to move it a Yellow triangle with a "!" inside appears next to the part. I can moved the symbol around on the screen but when I let off the mouse button to drop it does not drop.  I can only release the symbol by right clicking or press the ESC key, and then it returns to its original position.  It has essentially locked the schematic page to any further changes.

 Has anybody else experienced this?  Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi,

    I also have this type of problem if I drag or copy paste a symbol or off page connector or a net, on an existing net or want to join to pin by dragging the same problem occur.

    temporarily I drag the component to the vicinty of that component which I want to join(not connect them directly and the you can join them by a new net.

    It is not a professional way but it works can any one help us.

    Thanks & Regards
