No ratsnest appears for a component

Hi all,

I’m learning KiCAD and am having trouble with a particular battery component. It’s connected to sewtaps (vias for using conductive thread projects) in the schematic but the netlist does not seem to import, only on this component, and I can’t put wires between them in the PCBnew.

Any ideas are appreciated!

are you able to use the highlight net tool on the schematic wires involved? If not then this sounds similar to a strange bug we had recently.

Thanks for the advice @Rene_Poschl! I just used the highlight net tool and no sneaky wires appeared.

Attach wire labels to the two wires and save the netlist. This will at least make the nets on the pads readable

Can you share your schematic?
