Hi all,

For some time now I'm using-and-testing the multichannel tool. During that time I've stumbled upon cases where zone mapping of identical copied of sub-schematics fail to find isomorphism complaining of "topological missmatch". But those sub-shcematics ARE identical.

So I was wondering, it it would be prudent and along the design roadmap if the "rules zones" based on subschematics were indicated as sub-sheet marker/flag available just like "exclude from simulation" or "exclude from board" are. An additional flag would be something like: "pin rule-zone to schematic" (or "schematic also defines role zone") and replace the "generate rule zone" step of defining area to replicate. Currently this becomes possible, as an option to indicate one part withing sub-sheet, that will "govern the placement and orientation" of replicated zones.

I still haven't worked out how exactly and where in the kicad code the "Generate zone" maps the identity of parts involved in the bug/failure resulting in topological mismatches I've experienced during replication. I'd appreciate a helping hand in understanding the code.

Regards,

-R
