They wanted the silkscreen to match I think. I found an internal "compromise".. I hacked gnetlist to add an "--map" argument which specifies a refdes remapping file. Format: OLD_REFDES NEW_REFDES ..... I hacked gsch2pcb to add pass arbitrary extra gnetlist options, and now I can netlist successfuly. My schematics have full hierarchy, and the refdes get bent inside gnetlist to match the renumbered board. The ".map" file is really easy to create from the output of PCB's "Renumber" action (suitably modified of course, to ignore the hierarchy names and rename using the prefix of the component). > Also can you ask them which IPC specification they are referring to? This argument has sailed, but if I get a chance, I will ask if they could let me know, or send a copy. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!) _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
