I've got a design in Altium and while routing, I moved a few resistors. They somehow accidentally got deleted and wouldn't undelete. I brought them back with an ECO, and placed them where I want them. Now, I have connection stringers going to their old location, and can't seem to get rid of them. Anyone else come across this?PCB

Edit: Design rule check does not fix this.

  • \$\begingroup\$ Another reason that this can happen is that if there is a tiny piece of copper assigned (assuming you had routed them previously) which you will need to significantly zoom in on to actually see, it retains the net ID. \$\endgroup\$

  • \$\begingroup\$ @PeterSmith - had the same thought, tried that too. Nothing there. Selected the whole area and deleted it... Still persists. \$\endgroup\$

Found the problem. Ran the command Design > Clean Net List, then Tools > Reset Error Markers - that cleared up the problem.
