PNS track being routed disappears with no obvious obstacle
Sometimes during routing, the track being routed disappears with no obvious obstable. Router set to SHOVE mode.
- If "routed track disappears" means: "Cannot solve", then it should leave the track in the last solvable position and prevent from further move, e.g. to allow the user to commit the part and clean up the way in other means.
- Why in this case the router rejects the pretty obvious solution? I try to connect two GND pads (highlighted first to confirm these belong to same net), and when trying to move to the rigth with clear way, the track disappears.
Description
Right now cannot route track, as it disappears in the way. Expect to be able to complete routing. Sample board attached. Trying to connect (R12, Pad 2) with (R1, Pad 2).
