Hello!
When I import eagle files into kicad, I have this problem.
Some vias havent any track. They are placed in the middle of a zone (like termal vias or ground) For that reason, they dont have any net, and they get avoided inside the zone.
I didnt find any way to fix it. Any idea? And, is there any way to detect unconnected vias?
Thank you very much.
If i understand your question you are searching for the rename tool from eagle. With it you could rename (relabel) a net within the pcb design tool set and it got transfered to the schematic via the forward backward annotation.
As far as i know such a tool is missing in PCBnew. Maybe somebody more experienced knows a trick i haven’t found yet.
My only solution would be to either connect the vias with a track to the correct net, or to delete them and create them from scratch.
Not related to your problem, only out of personal interest: Is there a schematic connected to the pcb file after you import it from eagle? (I never found out how to migrate schematic files. I used the migration from eagle to kicad as an excuse to completely redesign my boards.)
Hello!
I will create a ticket with this wishlist. Select the via, properties, and
change the net.
About schematics, no, I dont know how to import it. I could do it from
eagle to altium, but the schematic is very messy and useless. I simply make
the schematic again, and I keep the net names
