I've been working on a project using a ancient versions of PCB and gEDA for an hour or two a week for three years or so. I've sort of learned how to use both programs, and drawn a pile of symbols and footprints. I've got the components placed where I'm happy with most of them. Drawing traces was going for a while, but now when I go to draw a trace, I'm having problems. When drawing the first segment all is well, all the connected pads highlight, but it appears that the trace, when drawn is not on the same net as the pads it's connected to. The new trace does not rubber band when components it should be connected to move. The new trace causes any further new traces that should also be on the same net to avoid it when the auto DRC is on. Additionally, ratsnest lines do not disappear when a new trace is drawn between connected pads. Does anyone know what could be going on here? Has anyone seen behaivor like this before? If I don't get this figured out pretty soon, I'm going to throw out the entire effort to date, and start the whole thing from scratch in a proprietary program. _________________________________________________________________
