[PEDA] Ways of displaying a library field in Schematic?

2002-03-07 Thread Hugh Stevenson
I am looking for a way to display one of the library fields in Schematic (other than "Library Reference", that gets copieed into "Part Type"). It seems strange to me that this is not easy but only the "Part Fields" are available for display and these are not stored in the Library. I am not a Ma

Ian, Peder, the company you are trying to recall must be SMT-Plus. They are at: http://www.smtplus.com/ However, as a subscriber to their library support I have noticed there are not a great number of patterns in the existing library for wave soldering. They will create new patte
