It doesn't have to be rendered image. A list of preselected footprints associated with a symbol would go a long way. Why not support an attribute "list-of-footprints" in the symbol? This list could be tuned to fit the local combination of symbol and footprint lib. Protel98 provides this kind of preselected footprints. It was five entries maximum and we cursed Altium for this restriction. Consequently, I really miss this feature in gschem. ---<(kaimartin)>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak Öffentlicher PGP-Schlüssel: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x6C0B9F53 _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
