Consider a track leading to pad at Altium 18,when I select the track and leave the pad, it will broken into two tracks. Previously, I was working with Altium16 ,With smart track end settings i had no problem like this, How can I fix it?

@FATEME, I believe, breaking the track may be the proper way to do it (therefore altium may intentionally break it). Tracks should be always clearly connected to a PAD / VIA - so tracks should always start / end in the middle of VIA or PAD. Maybe altium use it for some reasons e.g. moving VIAs or components together with tracks, calculating signal length etc. .. but this is just my guessing - they probably have a reason why they do it.

PS: I tried a little bit to search in the settings, but could not find anything what could change the behavior
