Signal will not connect to other line or pad

 Hi,
Please give advise why the signals don't want to connect.

I tried every setting I found, the lines just do not want to snap to a pin or other line segment. The ratsnets showing not connected even if the line endponits are completely on each other. I replaced the components to be on grid (the footprints are OK), tryed to swich on/off "gridless" and turned "snap to pin" on/off. If I try many times, it makes the connection, but it makes me crazy.

Is there a setting for snap to grid range?

The companys standards are working, I should just finish a colleauges job and I can't find what he set wrong.

 thank you in advance

    Hello,

           Please ensure that you have Clines and or Cline Segs checked in your Design Object Find Filter.  Once checked you should connect the clines after issuing add connect command.
