I've opened the different IC symbols and displayed the details. Some use Vcc, others VDD, some VSS, others GND. So I added Vcc and VDD to a +5V symbol and the other two to the ground symbol. Didn't help, sad to say. > It is best to "Just say no!" to embedded power pins ;-) > Sorry, I'm a newbie, I don't know how to do that. If it involves redesigning existing symbols, I don't have time to change them all. If there is another way to do it, I'm open to suggestions.
