As a former Ultiboard / Pads user I like easy PC, but there are some things which really seem not to help me, or which I do not understand. Maybe some experiences here ?

Rubberbanding ( or the yellow lines ) I like to see them when placing/moving a component, so it is easy to find the best position, is this possible ?
Sometimes after making a connection the yellow line remains. Which imho should not be.

Already several times I did something in pcb (without knowing what ) which deleted some connections in the netlist. Furthermore when manual routing and clicking on a track on another layer, pcb asks whether I want to add a corner or a via.

In general: the schematic determines the netlist and I basically not want to alter the netlist from within the pcb application, because this is very dangerous. Is there an option to change this, so
I can not accidentally delete connection and it does not have to ask me if I want to make a wrong connection or a corner ?
