Orcad, any ways that i can remove the connection?

[NicholasTok]

Hi everyone,

I have successfully importing a duplicated version of my 100% route to the file. the but still another problem arise, after importing there are some connection automatically generated.

If there a way to manually remove the unwanted yellow connection and remove some of the components, as I would like to merge the VCC, GND and -VCC to a single power supply?

Please help again as i could not find a way to remove those connections.

Regards
Nicholas Tok

Should your layout show any other layers other than top (red)? Is it a single-layer board?

In the component you can right-click on the component and select "delete". This would delete the component. Similar thing with connections.

Just select Tool/Connection/Disconnect pin, select the pin and answer as you wish.

Yap its a single layer routing only the bottom layer.

Just select Tool/Connection/Disconnect pin, select the pin and answer as you wish.

hi dmk,

i have tried that, 1st i select the pin icon from the rows of icons, then i select the pin which i wish to disconnect, then i select the tool tap, connection...

I can see the disconnect pin option but its not available to be selected which i have no idea why?

You must select connection tool first, then move over the pin, right click on it and from the pop-up menu select disconnect pin. It should work. I really don't know why you cannot do it.
