Thanks for your help.

Richard,

Magnify your design and look for unconnected "dots" or very very short
tracks.
Glad to help Richard!

This happens sometimes when you have an undeleted track segment left.
These track segments can be extremely small and almost invisible -
still annoying thop'.

This is only a problem when exporting for auto routing.

Hi all
I have successfully created a schematics including all libs for
schema and footprints then placed the components on a board. Then I
tried the manual router but as my board is quite dense I could not
route it. I think the manual editing of PCB boards is not very
comfortable.
So I decided to extract the specctra DSN but could not create that file.
I get the following message (translated from German) IO_ERROR: Can
not find next segment with end point @ ( 90.424mm,62.738mm). Please
adjust the board outline so that it is connected/continuous. then some
path ...pcbnew/specctra.cpp: ThrowIOError() : line 119 Export not
possible. Please solve the problem and try again.
I have redrawn the pcb outline several times. I have started the
line in a different corner every time. It seems as if the start and
end of the line are causing a problem although I put the line on a grid.
What can I further try.
Regards
Richard
