If I try to place or move the CTS* chip resistor arrays in PCB they won't
budge. The crosshair is nailed to the top of the screen, and even my
Align plugin won't move them (which surprised me!).

Hello,
is it possible to group multiple symbols in gschen, so that their
position relative to each other is fixed.
Reason: I have a filter consisting of 3 coils and 3 capacitors. This
filter-element is used multiple times in my schematic, so I want to
build a group with these six elements, which

Yes. I routinely divide integrated circuits into a functional and a power
part. Just make sure, all parts get the same refdes. gsch2

Yup. Just give each part the same refdes, and the netlister merges
them automatically.

Hello,

I plan to make a pcb-board with a FPGA chip which has 208 pins. The
device (Spartan-3E) has four banks -- so it may be a good choice to
divide it into 4 sub-symbols?
I think I have seen sc

Hi.
pcb and gschem seem to have its own ideas about size and placement of
dialogs. In particular it does not seem to remember most of the
parameters. Thus the user has to manually place them time and again.
There is a way to work around this until pcb and gschem will finally
remember all the p

If you could get him to write up a summary of the issues, I'd be
