Dynamic shape prevents me from place or move a connect line.

Jens Hallgren

After updating Orcad 16.6 to 17.20.031 I can no longer place or move a connect line where a dynamic shape is. If I remove a connect line the dynamic shape updates immediately to fill the space.To do any routing I have to remove the shape and make a new shape later.

    Try:

    Setup > User Preferences
    Route / Connect category
    Enable the variable:

    etchedit_ignore_dynamic_shapes:

    This ignores dynamic shapes while doing etch editing tasks like add connect and slide.

    Thank you. I discovered that. It's strange though, why this was suddenly unchecked without a reason.
