Sorry, I am a total kicad noob, so this could be a dump question:
What is going wrong, if the white connection line between two parts does not disappear, even if I have drawn a track between them.
I have a board, with 4 resistors, that keep their white lines. All other parts have no lines any more, after drawing tracks between them.
What could be the reason for this?
Maybe the track doesn’t snap to the center of the pad. This behaviour can be forced with magnetic pads in the preferences.
Or you are using smd footprints on the top layer (usually red) and you are connecting the pads on the back layer (usually green).
In general: Screenshots would help us to see what the problem is.
You can simply drag and drop image files into the comment box. This will automatically upload the image to a cloud service and set a link to point there.

@pedro: ahh, thank you. I have seen, that the smd-footprints are red and the wires are green.
Is there any functionality, to move the resistors to the back layer?
One more forum-feature-question: how can I mark a thread as solved?
Edit the title -> add “(solved)” to it.
Editing a tilte is done by clicking the pen symbol next to it.
Yes, Flip. There is a shorcut: select the footprint and hit F
