Hi gEDA,
I'm a part-time developer of kicad and a part-time pcb designer. My
most recent project has a lot of duplicated circuitry in a three-level
hierarchy, something which kicad does not support very well. Kicad
allows a hierarchy, but it does not allow different component
references on different instances of the same schematic. e.g. the
hierarchy is something like this
A
B B
C C C C
where each of the different C sheets originates from the same file
etc. on the final board, each C should have a different ref num (C101
etc)
I've spent the last two weeks trying to add this feature, but it is
not easy :( Does g-EDA already have this feature? I'll convert my
schematics, if so. I also like that there is more developer chatter
on the gEDA list as opposed to the kicad list - gives me more
confidence. Kicad is easier to use, though, and builds on windows...
I wish that we could combine forces :)
thanks a bunch,
Tim
