Hi, Are you guys still struggling with the real back-annotation? That is, when you've routed your PCB and re-numbered your components' reference numbers according to x and y axis placement, you want to get those reference numbers back into the schematic... I've written a tool for this purpose, and it works for me. I figure there must be other methods floating around, else people would have raised a stink about this "missing feature". It's written for Windows, and doesn't support multiple hierarchy levels (root schematic plus their children works so far). That's all I need, but if someone has the enthusiasm to make this more generic and full-featured, you're welcome to do it. If this sounds like something someone would like to have, ping me! Ahmad
