When routing traces from pads/vias with slight offsets, Altium generates redundant trace segments under the pad/via. These “stub traces” create clutter and hinder component movement.
Is there an Altium option to automatically remove hidden trace segments fully covered by copper of the same net?
Alternatively, is there a setting to prevent these stub traces from being generated in the first place?
The only command I know of is to be sure “Auto complete” is off. I don’t know of any other fixes for this
I set the pads to ‘fade’ and look at the components and see if the middle of the pad has a jumble of odd tracks or jogs or blobs buried in the pad and just delete them. (Not the pads haha)
