I have ratlines on my GND and VCC lines that I can't fix. I have triple-checked them.
Can you look at my board-v2 and tell me what I'm doing wrong? Thanks ...
Sorry but I can't see your project.
For some reason, your dashboard says you have 1 Public project but it actually shows zero public projects.

That aside, one thing to check is that if you have any GND and VCC nodes that are connected *only* by copper areas and do *not* have any traces connecting them, then you must do a `Rebuild copper area` and make sure that the copper areas are visible.

I switched a project from public to private so the DB must have gotten confused. If you give me your email I will share the project using a URL.
I have rebuilt my copper area and imported from the schematic multiple times. I have stared at the ground plane and there are no islands.
> some times, you don't connect the track to pad to pad
Yes. Thanks to your help I found that I needed to fix several track-to-pad that weren't snapped to the white dot. So I have learned to check the white dots.
I found sometimes that components with connections via copy areas sometimes get ratlines if I move them, even after using "Rebuild Copper Area". Saving the PCB and refreshing the browser window usually fixes the problem. I wonder if some of your issues were this problem?
I haven't been able to reproduce reliably enough to file a bug report.
@Alan.Green I don't see any problems about ratline, but I trust maybe there are some problems for the ratline.
Just know this, the ratline is just a way to show unconnect. if they are connected, you can ignore the ratlines.
@Dillon: yes, I've only seen this three or four times and it does not stop me from working. If I can get a reliable test case, I will file a bug report. Thanks!
