Organizing PCB Checks.

Clarifying Tool Usage.

Determining Tool Usage for PCB Tasks.

Planning Tool Queries.

Accessing knowledge base.

Reading docs about How do I locate a specific component by designator in the Flux PCB editor, zoom to it, or select it from the Objects panel? Also how to cross-select from schematic to PCB?.

Reading docs about How to use the PCB Objects list/object tree to find a component by designator, filter, and select it so it highlights on the PCB canvas in Flux..

Analyzing the PCB layout.

Running design review.

Reviewing the bill of materials.

Checking Components and Linking.

Finalizing user instructions.

Good news: D1 is on the PCB and has a footprint (0402 TVS). The “Missing Footprints” DRC is clear. You’re likely just not seeing it on canvas.
What Flux docs say about finding it “Navigation
  • Click on any category to expand or collapse it
  • Use the search field at the top to find specific objects by name
  • Right-click on the tree background for additional view options
Selection
  • Click on any object in the tree to select it in the PCB editor
  • Hold Shift to select multiple consecutive objects
  • Hold Ctrl (or Cmd on Mac) to select multiple non-consecutive objects
  • Right-click on an object for a context menu of actions
Visibility Control
  • Click the eye icon next to any object to toggle its visibility
  • Use the visibility controls at the top of the tree to show/hide entire categories
  • Right-click and select ‘Hide Others’ to focus on specific elements” Source
Do this
  • Open the Objects list and type “D1” in the search field; click it to select. The footprint will highlight on canvas. If it’s still not visible, use the eye icon to ensure it isn’t hidden.
Current DRC summary
  • Airwires: EN, IO0, RXD0, TXD0 between U1 and test pads TP1/TP2/TP3/TP4. No “Missing Footprints” errors.
When you’ve located D1, tell me and I’ll guide you to place it close to J2 and clear the airwires next.

        Introducing AI Placement!
        AI Placement Demo

        AI-Powered Component Placement

        Let AI place your components intelligently. AI Placement analyzes your schematic and positions components for optimal routing, signal integrity, and board density.

        From Schematic to Layout in Seconds

        Skip the tedious manual placement. AI Placement generates a starting layout you can refine, saving hours of repetitive work on every new design.

        Works With Auto-Layout

        Pair AI Placement with Auto-Layout for a complete AI-driven PCB design flow — from component placement through trace routing, all with one click.
