Yes, I can place parts, but i can't seem to add tracks in order to connect pads. Unless there is a rats nest(from schematic) PCBnew won't let me connect pads with a track. I get an error, "track to close to pad", or something similar. What tool are you using to place pads on a board? The only tool i could see was the track/via tool.
