Capture 16.3 - Can't move any component in schematic

shangwu

Hi,

I created a schematic in Capture 16.3 and I can no longer move any part or net.  Whenever I try to move anything, it shows "Object move not completed as this resulted in connectivity changes".  Does anyone know how to solve this?

Thanks.

 

I'm using 16.3-S014

    I guess I found the problem.

    There are some connections that OrCAD just didn't like.  As long as I delete these connections, it allows me moving parts, even though these problematic points have nothing to do with some other components.

     I also had the same problem and finally found the solution. It was not by deleting other componet.

    Make sure "Allow component move with connectivity changes" is selected.

    Creating a new page and copy, pasting components to it worked for me
