False connections

Resets false connections. Use this function if an object is not connected, but still has a non-zero value on connection node. i.e no other object has a connection node with the same value. The reason for this could be that the object that had the connection from the beginning has been deleted incorrectly. This could result in an error message that states Unable to find free end when you are trying to connect to this object.

 

1.Select Edit > Object > Disconnect > False connections.

2.Select the object you like to reset.

If false connections were found, the message False connection found and reset is displayed in the status list after the function is completed. Otherwise, the message No false connections found is displayed.
