You are probably trying to create the PWB without associated schematics.
To do that you must turn off the DRC on the layout program (left side top icon) Sincerely TG _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Bill Kelsey Sent: Sunday, December 13, 2009 4:39 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [kicad-users] Help - SImple question Hi - I am slowly learning to use Kicad. I am attempting to do my first simple boards, and have a few questions that have probably been answered before, but I can not find the answer in the documentation or 0n-line. I want to connect to the board with wires. How do I place a pad on the board and then connect a track to it? I have been able to define a pad footprint in a library, and place it on the board, but I can not get a track to connect it to the piece of the circuit I want to connect to. I can get the track, but I can not get it to terminate anywhere. What am I missing?? -- 73 - Bill - N8ET www.kangaus.com
