net names, disconnected in schematics

[Nicholas Savenlid]

in schematics when you open the schematic, net names (labels) appears to be disconnected (shown as such)

moving 1 net name, and putting it down into its original position, reconnects all of them

Strange, it looks like TestDanglingEnds() isn't being called on load. Oddly enough I cannot reproduce this, it starts up fine for me. Can you walk me through exactly how you get to this point, step by step?

[Nicholas Savenlid (nicholas-z)]

cant reproduce myself now.

But i just started kicad, opened the design and then schematics.
nothing else.

happened both on my own design and one external design.
worse on the external.

in my own design just one single net-name-label was floating ( that I saw )

I saw this issue. I have forgotten about of it source.

Bug steps:
-open eescheme
-open pcbnew
-select to an arbitrary component on pcb board
-switch to eescheme window

[jean-pierre charras (jp-charras)]

I am pretty sure it is fixed now. Try a very recent build.

[Nicholas Savenlid (nicholas-z)]

still there

I can also confirm this issue using Eldar's reproduction steps using December master builds.

[Wayne Stambaugh (stambaughw)]

Hmm, I wonder if this has anything to do with Seth's recent
wire/bus/junction improvements. That's the only thing I can think of
that has recently changes in the schematic editor that might cause this
issue.
