Absolutely! Protel is lagging compared to our expectations in the whole
library management area and has been for some time. In this day of QA-this
and ISO-that we really do need better version control of both libraries and
designs. They do know this, I was at a meeting (some time ago) where a
Protel employee was listening and asking questions on what we
wanted. Library management was one area discussed in detail and, I think,
recognised as needing lots of work. I would expect, without any special
knowledge, that the next version of Protel will have *much* better library
handling. I would hope this includes full traceability to the exact
library that each component and symbol was extracted from.
Also, as discussed previously, I would like full support for those
people/companies that wish to run Protel in the "Give every part a symbol"
fashion. This will require the ability to set and lock almost every sch
symbol attribute in the library, including part type.
My USD$0.00000000002 (about AUD$2.47 I think),
