Hi
I'm a 3 days old Kicad user (and a totally newbie in CAD CAM software… never 
touched such a software before, excepted ExpressPCB)
I just finished understanding the "general idea" behind EEschemas, played with 
the tutorial and some examples, and began to draw my first circuit. So far, 
everything is working fine (excepted some mysterious duplication of components, 
stacking one over the other).

But I'm now stuck trying to design a new "Module" (component outline). 

My problem : 
I want to add a new component in the module lib, a standard  small DPDT relay 
in a 10 pin dil package (compatible with the standard 10DIP-ELL300 package). 
This component exists in 2 different pinout : classical DIL "thru hole" and SMT 
mount. As I wish to keep the possibility to use either devices one the pcb will 
be etched, I'd like to draw a module with its 10 "thru" pins AND 10 CMS 
rectangular pads in the extension of the thru-hole-pads. (I wonder if I made 
myself clear… English is definitely not my mother-thong)

I try to dig into the Kicad Yahoo group, but couldn't find any answer. 

Is it possible and how ?

...or did someone allready designed this kind of module

Thanks for your attention
