Hello Jonathan > My first reason for writing the tutorial is to scratch my own itch. This is the same reason i wrote the stuff (AdditionalKiCAD-Docu_06Aug2010.zip) you find at the attachment. :-) The first i needed working with KiCAD was an EN60617 library. So i had to make them. And so i had to work with the library editor. Because the lack of documentation, i collected my notices...and so on. > An earlier comment confirmed my suspicion, that such a tutorial is needed. Of course, yes. But be aware, that your work often will get obsolete, because of the fast progress in developing. > With regard to copyright, do you have any opinion?

It looks like a good start. This is a not-well-documented feature of KiCAD, so your tutorial is much needed. Make sure to add the method for creating bus lines that are auto-numbered. This is the primary reason I use sub-sheets. Gotta make sure to use the ".." - no more and no less dots... :-) --CG
