Error - Shape to SMD Pin spacing

Hi,

I am using USB 3.1 type Micro B in my PCB designing. I am getting this error. I haven't made the footprint, I have downloaded it.

Can anyone help me to solve this error ?

Thanks in advance.

Ill need to look at the footprint to clarify. What is the connector part number and where did you get it from? UltraLibrarian, Samacsys, SnapEDA?

The connector part number is ZX360D-B-10Pand it is from SnapEDA

Here is the link for the footprint of the part :

OK so the connector pin is split into a pin which is half the square and a static copper section which is not associated to the net. You can for ease use Shape - Select Shape or Void, pick the Shape and assign the net name to that shape ( GND_EARTH), Repeat for both pins and the DRC's will be gone. You might want to consider editing the actual footprint and make sure the added shape covers the actual pin origin. You could also suggest that to SnapEDA. that way the static shape will take on the pin netname when it's used.
