Gary,
That's different.
If one assigns the Voltage Property to the PWR/GND nets (P3V3VDC in this
case) then the Xnet understands the discrete is really and termination
and won't form the Xnet.
Edit > Properties > (find filter set to "Nets") > Voltage = 3.3v, GND =
0V

Well, the net "P3V3VDC" is a member of the XNet "EEPROM_WP" for one
example (3.3V & EEPROM write protect?).
I don't think there is a reason to have xnets setup at all.
I like to put the property Ratsnest_Schedule = Power_And_Ground on my
power and gnd nets so that the rats look like this:
Instead of the rats going all over the place (yeah, I don't like filled
pads either!).

But what do you mean exactly by 'should not be there'?

Or
Specifically, remove the model from the component.
Analyze > Model Assignment > Select the part and clear the model. ( this
will come back if you reassign all models or auto assign)
Hope this helps.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] XNet dilemma
Hey guys,
I have some XNets in my design that should not be there.
I asked the DE and he said that he didn't add them in the schematic (he
doesn't even know about them).
Does anyone know if there is a way to remove them in Allegro?
Thanks for any help.
