Unfortunately, it is not that easy. gnetlist delivers the footprint of the first symbol of a given refdes in a gschem file. If this symbol does not contain a footprint, gnetlist does not output a footprint for this refdes at all -- no matter what value the footprint attribute of the other instances is. Yes, this is exactly the pitfall that my patch fixed, whose acceptance you violently and successfully opposed. > You can also use my pins2gsch script and just do pwr/gnd as a table, no > drawing needed. > >> But I wondered about netlisting and refdes support.
