Details

After launching the command, the cursor will change to a crosshair and you will be prompted to choose an electrical object or connection. Position the cursor over a routed connection or pad belonging to the net you wish to unroute and click or press ENTER. All routed track and vias for that net will be removed and replaced by the logical connections.

Continue unrouting further nets or right-click or press ESC to exit.

Notes

If you do not know the location of a pad on the net you require, click in free space and a dialog will pop up, prompting for the net name. If you are unsure of the net name type ? and click OK to launch the Nets Loadeddialog, which lists all loaded nets for the design.

If any track is locked a confirmation dialog will appear, asking whether you want to allow the unroute for locked primitives. If you select No, then only track that is not locked will be unrouted.
