How to connect mechanical pins with connector pins

Hi all.

I purchased a few parts and I want to build a few test fixtures for them. Some of them are SMD, others are thru-hole. I finished all circuits expect the location of parts. For SMD I want to create 4 pieces of silver(each silver is for one corner of the part)  and mount the SMD part on the top, lastly connect the silvers to the rest of circuits. For thru-hole, I want to drill two holes and do the similar things. Right now I created the mechanical symbols for the silvers and holes, but I have some trouble about how to connect them to the rest of circuits (Let's say, a resistor). Simply draw a wire is not working. The error message is, 'DRC error: Line to Thru Pin Spacing. Actual value: 0 mm'. 

I tried for a long time and cannot make it to work. Will anyone give me a hint? Thanks.

Adam
