Which is what I do. Leave the footprint off the symbol and slap them all in later with gattarib. In the case of AVR's -- It's not clear how much it buys you. The pin #'s are different between DIP and TQFP packages. I suppose if you are going between TQFP and MLF it helps. -dave _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
