Have you thought about using Checkplus. There are a couple of rules that you could run that might identify the condition. Graphical Rules: graphic_connectivity_checks: [unnamed_net_offpage_body or unnamed_net_flag_body] or Logical Rules: net_name_checks: single_node_net Just a thought.

Then you have to zoom in to see and it goes away. Grantid, you can zoom in and repeat this on every area on every page, but if you miss one...no rat on board. With all the wiring checks, why not have this? I know...I just couldn't resist. Thanks for your reply, Mark First of all: Why would it EVER let you add a signal name to a flag if then it would not recognize it as a connection?????????????????????? A new E.E. did not know better and littered the schematic Bolman, Shirley H wrote: Have you tried using the show attachment? If a signal name is attached to a pin there should be a red line to the pin. Signal names attached to wires show where the name is attached on the wire.

Besides attributing each wire which is very time consuming. We found that a signame can be accidentally assigned to a flag pin instead of a wire segment. Therefore, the connection is not made in the board. How can we verify this was not done in our schematics.
