Crash when attempting to create a blind via without prior routing of a track
Description
same as issue #19294 (closed) which was closed by bot.
crashes on kicad 8 and 9
I wanted to place a blind via directly on the pad of a footprint. So I selected "Route tracks (x)", then directly right-clicked on the pad, and, in the context menu, selected "Select layer and place blind/buried via..." (It's important to note that I did not draw any traces before). The result was an immediate crash-to-desktop. I would have expected the normal layer selection dialog and the construction of a via afterwards, though I'm meanwhile assuming that I'm doing this wrong and that there is a better way to quickly create blind vias. Still, a CTD is probably not the intended reaction to this.
Steps to reproduce
- Create a new project and open pcbnew.
- Select "Route tracks (x)", but don't route anything yet.
- Right click somewhere in the layout window.
- From the appearing context menu, select "Select layer and place blind/buried via...". Kicad should crash.
