in OrCAD Capture 25.1 where right-clicking off-page connectors and selecting the Signals function results in disordered navigation.

Zhifeng Jin
I encountered a strange issue while designing schematics recently.
Create a blank OrCAD Capture project containing two schematic pages: Page1 and Page2.
Off-page connectors placed on Page1: A+9, A+_
Off-page connectors placed on Page2: A+9, A+_, A_
(The letter A can be replaced with any other alphabetic character.)
Right-click any off-page connector and select Signals to open the signal jump list, which will show disordered navigation entries. However, the final generated netlist has correct connections as expected.

Try jumping to every off-page connector on both pages one by one.

    This makes people mistakenly believe that the signals are not connected when actually checking the wiring relationships in the schematic.

    Is this kind of issue acceptable in Capture?
