Hi,
I have a momentary switch with 4 poles with connections to pins 1 and 2 like this:


However when I do the DRC check in the PCB layout it tells me that there is a Connection Error (Object 1 is disconnected from other objects of the same network).
If I manually put a trace between Pins 1 and 2 the error is fixed, however I can't do this for my board because I need traces to go down between the pins and I don't want to have to use a Via.
Is it the footprint that is wrong for the switch (C318884) I am using (although it seems to be the same for other switches/buttons with 4 pins that I've tried.
If anyone could tell me how I fix this without having to put additional traces on my PCB it would be so helpful.
Many thanks,
Niall
