Another method is to create a class of all nets (after you've 
updated the netlist). Select all tracks on top and bottom layers and 
then use the class to unselect the ones with nets, leaving the ones 
without.

Matthias, Andy, Gisbert

thanks for the answer, but Edit > Select > Net > clicking on a No-Net-Track got
no effekts on my Design, huh!?! It works well when I choose an other net.
Andys way helped me to select the tracks, I had to check "same layer" to
prevent that Keepouts and Mech where chousen.
Gisbert, thanks for your answer, but there are nets on the components I wanted
to stay and run to the other components behind them...


Thanks to all.

Waldemar

Re: [PEDA] Find and delete Tracks without net

2001-12-13 Thread Andy Lintz

This is what I did to delete old tracks from components that had been
deleted:
1. Design, Netlist Manager, Menu, Update Free Primitives from Connected
copper (this sets the tracks to No Net, but it doesn't completely forget
about the old net so a global edit won't work)
2. Save the pcb file and close it.  Then reopen it.  (this seems to reset
the net name so all the No Net are now accurately tagged as No Net)
3. Edit a No Net track and Global Edit to search for same net. It should now
find all No Net tracks (including those on Mechanical layers and such so you
may want to limit the search by layers also).
4. Check the selection and delete it.

Hi Waldemar,

I tried this Edit > Select > Net > clicking on a No-Net-Track > Clear
...and oops, all tracks and vias with No Net diappeared in my PCB.
I manually changed them from different nets to No Net before, just as a test.  

I hope this will fit for you
