Nets move in weird ways when dragging group

I'm experiencing annoying issues when dragging groups (and components in general) in the schematics. Certain parts of the nets seem to be "stuck" and don't move along with the components. The origin of the problem might be the way new nets don't merge with others when drawing them, but that's only a speculation from my side.

Before drag:

After drag up:

This happens all the time. I drew multiple nets to an IC, and everything went out the window when trying to reposition.

As it seems like there was some overlap of the particular net on the screenshot, I tried redrawing it and moved the group down. I ended up with this:

Am I doing something wrong when drawing nets or is this intended, annoying behaviour?

Hi @pstormarkG9SGY

I hope you are doing well!

I have a quick try for the Move Group workflow and it works well for me.

I guess the reason is that some objects are not on your group.

Would you mind Ungrouping them and grouping them again?

If it still doesn't work, you can send me your file.

I will send my email address to you as a private message.

You're correct. That particular issue went away, but I'm still having weird net behaviour when moving components not related to groups as well.

After drag down:

Why doesn't Fusion simply shorten the net instead? This doesn't look good.

Hi @pstormarkG9SGY

For the new issue you mention, I think we can do some improvement.

I will report it to the develop team.

If I get more information, I will keep you updated.
