Diamonds on routes

budnoel

Hello - I am trying to instantiate a previously created module that I made from an older design.  I noticed I have these "diamonds" on my routes when I attempt to route them.  Could someone explain what these are and how I need to account for them?  Thank you.

    You get the "diamonds" at the boundary of the module, you can disband the module if you wish, this will remove the diamonds but also the module will no longer be "as one". You will need to add etch to the tracks to connect the points after that. Since they just indicate the boundary of the module, you might want to leave things alone.
