Some points you can try:
Thanks.

Some points you can try:
- Try zooming in on to the connector and nets shall appear
- Check if there any compilation error. With Atlium 20, they have an auto compile engine hence Right click on the PCB Project and Click "Validate"
- Try cross probing the Pins on the PCB and check if they indicate to the corresponding pin in the schematic
Thanks.
