Hi Vaughn, I've opened your schematic and used the en command to make symbol attributes visible and I see net=GND:7 net=Vcc:14 on the nand gates in yellow, meaning it is an attached attribute. you will have to change that to use your chosen names, or remove them with John's script, then use

Hi Vaughn, I didn't think you had to do anything special. When I have multiple sheets I just use the same net name for signals that are the same (ie connected together). gnetlist sorts it out when you give it multiple pages. Peter. On Wed, 2006-09-27 at 06:36 -0700, Vaughn Treude wrote: > Hello

There's no special symbol for connections between sheets: just attach a netname= attribute to each net you want to connect. All nets with the same netname wind up connected together in the netlist. On Sep 27, 2006, at 7:36 AM, Vaughn Treude wrote: Hello everyone: Sorry, but I'm having a lit
