Folks - Primarily DJ (I assume) - I have a question on the internals of PCB:
1) Assume I have a routed PCB saved as a buffer file - ie: I've developed the board, it's routed, has an associated netlist and reference designators, and has 0 remaining routes. This has been cut to buffer and saved as a file. 2) I open a new file, load the buffer from said file, and paste it multiple times. (Say 4...) I notice at this point the netlist no longer exists; OK, that makes sense. But I also notice that the reference designators are changed. My question: What is the methodology used for resetting the reference designators? If there is a gap in the original set of designators (say C1, C2, C5...) will that "gap" still exist in subsequent sets? If there is no number on a designator, will the name be simply duplicated? (ie: "fiducial") Thanks for the info... Cheers!...
