Yesterday I found 2 bugs related to this:

1) in the "edit pin" window there is an option "[ ] Common to all 
elements" (may not be the exact wording, I am retranslating). This 
option is *off* but the pin is used in all elements. *Workaround*: set 
it to ON, press "Ok", edit the pin again and set it to OFF. Then it 
works as expected.

2) if I edit a component like 74HC14, in the library there are 2 
connections to VCC and GND. There is nowhere to edit or delete them. 
*Workaround*: edit the file manualy

Please, anyone, tell me if there is a better way of doing it that I was 
unable to find, or if theis is a really a bug

Thanks,
Alain
