Orcad PCB Designer Rats config

PPeixoto

Hello 

I'm new to Orcad PCB Designer, and i'm sure this problem is easy basic fix, but i can't find it, in any video or post.

For some reason, some of the Rats in one of my PCB's apear with an X in for each connection insted of the classic line conection the points. This appens only for the power signals. 

Can this be changed to appear all as lines ?

 

PS: Version 17.4-2019 

Thanks

  • This is driven by the Voltage property on the net which may have come from the schematic. In PCB go to Constraint Manager - Properties tab, Net - General Net Properties and locate the netname in question, remove the voltage value (say 0) and then the ratsnest with show as point to point. It may come back again if you netlist from the schematic In which case you'll need to remove it from there as well.
