For FPGAs, I wanted to go the route of exporting the mapping from KiCad back into the FPGA toolchain, because it is probably easier to handle swapping pins during routing that way. But eventually, both directions should be supported. > FPGAs don’t have standard peripherals but the ability to edit pins for > directional/type and give them a meaningful name would be welcome. The pin name should still be "IOnnn" or "DIFFIOnnn+" or something such, otherwise the mapping cannot be seen in the schematic anymore. > I recognize that there’s the small matter of programming necessary to make > this all happen. Indeed. But there are reasons why the pin table has such an open-ended design, and allows collapsing on pin number. Simon
