Why command line tool used to extract/convert/process schematics into not schematic would be best idea to just alter visibility of pins or attributes for whole sheet at once, i just want to save time on click on element, edit-attributes, enable visibility of one, and move cursor to next. > John Doty Noqsi Aerospace, Ltd. > http://www.noqsi.com/ > [email protected] -- Maciej Pijanka I don't fear computers, I fear lack of them -- Isaac Asimov _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
