MessageHi Peter,

When I pull in a new netlist (File -> Import -> Logic...), I typically *do
not* have the "Allow etch removal during ECO" box checked.  When this box is
*unchecked*, the clines will remain even though the net name has changed.
You will now have a DRC marker where the cline enters the pad where the net
name changed.  Delete the last piece of cline at the changed end, then pick
up the cline and put it back down exactly where it was.  It will then have
the new net name of the pad you want it to keep connected to.  Let me know
if you need any more help.

  I have a number of very kompleks clines that have change pin connection in
one end. Unfortunately the net name has also change.
  I don't wan't to delete and reroute the clines that will take some tilme.
Is there a way to edit the net assigned to the clines and vias.
