Arduino template - issue on the connection

Layout
1

Hi everyone,

I’m designing a PCB from the Arduino template available in the Kicad library.
I used eeschema for the schematic: no issue.

The problem appear with PCBNew: the connector from the Arduino template couldn’t be connected to the other components. (even if the ratsnest indicate the connection with the connector pin…).

I tried to change the layer (cpt <=> copper and vice versa…) but without result…

Someone could help me?

Thank you in advance for your support!

PS: In attachment screenshoot: the detail view is more focus on the issue: track “DIN” can’t be connected to the PIN 6 of the connector.

I have what is basically a “guess” could your arduino template be off grid enough to not allow the connection with on grid traces?

BTW I had trouble with an arduino pro mini library template (width was wrong, i probably selected the wrong template , I was somewhat green at that time). I ended up making one for my own library. It was not that difficult, good experience, and now I’m sure it suits my needs.

There is something else behind Pin6. You need to move it out of the way.
