Yes, John, that would be helpful. It would give me a second sample to try here and see where I may be going wrong. Thanks, Steve > > Want me to create a schematic set with embedded symbols and send it to > you for another example to follow? > The schematic is for some free-published hardware..

My symbol, that I created, that represents my lower level schematic has pins with only pin numbers, pinseq numbers, and pin labels. The pin labels match the refdes on the IO connectors on the underlying schematic. That is the way it was done on the gTAG example. I tried assigning pintypes to

Continuing my checking, I have found that *all* the nets on the lower level schematics are showing up in the net list file twice, first as separate nets and then again as included in the proper nets with all the pins from the lower levels combined with the top level connections. The reason

Actually, I have to take that back, the nets do show up correctly connected for all of the IOs, but the pins on the lower level schematic also show up in the net list as nets with only a single pin. So those nets in question are actually in the net list twice, once as single pin nets and th

The net list comes out OK except for two of the nets which don't connect through between the upper level and the lower level schematics. Steve On Mon, 11 Feb 2008 13:09:40 -0800, Peter Clifton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Mon, 2008-02-11 at 13:07 -0800, Steve Taylor wrote: > >> I am evide

Hi Ales, Thank you very much for the info, it clarifies fully about gEDA's RFCs policy. I fully respect your view and judgement on that. I did not read Peter C's previous message "gEDA-dev: Spice SDB slotting fix". and unfortunately I did not realize it would have something in it that would af
