Schematic net list, off page connectors
« on: October 12, 2017, 12:44:18 pm »
Hi  several problems and need some help.

in the schematic can nets be listed for each page and Is  there a quick method to find where the net are used?
The tool reports unconnected nets which are off page  even if the net name are identical.


thanks

Altium is using hierarchical design by default, which means you need to explicitly tell it, that you want two off sheet nets are connected. Its with the port, not with the netlabel. And multiple nets can have the same name, but not connected. It allows greater flexibility.
Please read this to understand.

It is a steep learning curve.
Also, the navigator panel's "interactive navigation" button helps.
