I just spend a lot of time trying to remove all the "dangling tracks" of my card...
This was a massive time wasting process. 99% were not real dangling tracks just end of tracks inside pads. which will make absolutely no difference after the creation of the board...
The problem is always the same a track inside an area of the same net.
My question is : Is there a way to disable those "false positive"?
At your risk, you can untick the "Dangling Tracks" item under NETS when you open up the DRC dialogue box. If you really have a problem with a dangling track it MIGHT also give a Track to track error or a Track to pad error etc. It most likely will not be picked up with an Integrity check.
Perhaps it would be better if we could pin down the reason why you are getting so many dangling bits of track inside your pads. The track editing should snap onto pads when you are working, its usually quite hard to get dangling bits left behind. If we could crack the sequence that lets you do this and close the loophole if there is one, you would no longer have those 'false positives' to worry about.
