-------
Under certain circumstances, while dragging tracks with the D key, using the push & shove router, it creates zero-length tracks. This seems to be a bug. These zero-length tracks can now cause DRC violations. See the screenshot. Here you can see the two red arrows pointing to the DRC violations. The white arrow is one that I added to show where I clicked to get the "clarify selection" box to pop up. Notice that one of the options at this location is a track of length 0.000 mm, which is the offending track causing both of the DRC violations it looks like.
Bug 1: zero-length tracks should be deleted instead of left to exist, when dragging tracks around with the push and shove router?
Bug 2: zero-length tracks shouldn't be allowed to create DRC errors?
If the devs need my exact pcb files I can email them, but don't want to share them publicly.
