Cannot get antenna pads to connect to any track

HI all, I've been designing a board where I need a PCB wifi antenna for an ESP32. I choose [this antenna](https://easyeda.com/component/bc9c5f8b6bef4e5390946dc390942860) but for some reason, I cannot connect either one of its pads to anything. It is also flagged in the DRC. Is there anything that I should change? I tried many other antennas but the problem persists. I used its own symbol in the schematic. Thank you in advance. ![image.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/cxuSfbpsIxUVFD0BWIDY7v49vUnltvMjwzzvUCtT.png)

The basic problem is that a PCB antenna is a single piece of copper so it cannot have different: * numbered pads on it; * netnames connected to it.

@andyfierman I see. Thank you for your help. I connected it using the "routing conflict ignore" function.
