2010-12-17 Thread Thomas D. Dean
I have a schematic with seven instances of a schematic, a hierarchy. I want to give different values to the resistors in each of the sub-circuits. For example, I have S1 thru S7. In S1, I want R1=100, in S2, I want R1=1k, etc. Is this possible with hierarchy? How do the components in the hiera
