Mark,
Checkplus is an external application (although some of it is used inside
of concept) that is launched from the Project Manager (Tools->Rules
Checker).

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.

Hi Shirley,
Yes, but all it does is point "temporarily" and is very
difficult to see if it is to a flag pin, a flag body or a short wire
segment.
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

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.

Hello,
Is there a way to tell if signames are attached to a
wire instead of a
flag? 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.
Thanks,
Mark
