Track does not connect to other sheet in hierarchical drawing

I have +12V supply voltage on other sheet of schematic and I want to connect to an other sheet, but fail for some reason.
This is what I have on one sheet. It looks correct, but it does not connect out of the sheet. The lone resistor is to prove to me that NET is allright.


This is the upper most sheet in the hierarchy

Now they connect, when I added a “global net label” both inside and outside of the sheet. That is, those both of the pink nets have now a “global net label” +12v. But why is it needed, there is no any such in other nets.

I Can not see properly what you have done. Partly because of the low resolution of your screenshot, but mostly because it is just pixels.

Global labels connect through all sheets in the hierarchy, and that defeats the use of the hierarchy.

I’m guessing here, but my best guess is that you placed hierarchical labels on both the hierarchical sheet, and inside the small sheet representation in the top level sheet (with “File: PSUskicad.sch”)

If you did this, then you did it wrong.
You have to first place hierarchical labels in the sub sheet, then you go back to the main sheet, right click on it and select “Import Sheet Pin” from the popup menu to import the label.

To further examine what is going on you need to upload your project, or preferably a simplified version with just some labels and a few resistors and wires as placeholders.

Thank you again for help.
That import “Import Sheet Pin” trick did it. I say a trick, because just labels should be enough. 3 kinds of labels and still a something else is needed.
