How can I add a new net between existing components after importing a schematic
Be more elaborate.
What is a “component” in your view?
KiCad has schematic symbols in the schematic, and PCB footprints in the PCB editor.
What do you mean with “Importing a schematic”.
Where does the schematic come from?
Where have you “imported” it into?
I want to add a new net (not in the original schematic) between a IC pin and a resistor … on a half way completed board layout. There does not seem to be a way to route a new trace (net) between PCB components. I can fix the schematic but do not want to loose all my work on the PCB layout and “Do Over”. Thank you for your quick reply …
The recommended way to do this is to add it in the schematic and then update pcb from schematic (F8). You won’t lose your work in progress layout. You can back up your project if you want to make sure, though.

oh super - I had assumed it was a start over when updating from the schematic entry … thank you
