[PEDA] file format compatibility P98 - P99SE

2001-12-02 Thread SF Consulting
Hello, does anyone know, if object file formats '.sch' (schematic), '.lib' (schematic library, pcb library) and '.pcb' are compatible between P99SE and the older versions P98 and P3? Where and what are the differences? Can I take (e. g.) a pcb file of P99SE, change it using P98 and work with it

I'm the exact opposite of this. I try to make each schematic part look like its function, rather than its physical layout. That way, the schematic will be a proper abstraction of the circuit, rather than a rough draft of the PCB. IMO it makes the schematic easier to read and understand if it's

Free pads, by definition, do not appear on the schematic. I read this post from Mr. Beavis and was pretty shocked. I was about to start railing at the programmers who would allow Free-padname to be deleted as if it were a component. But I tried it first. I could not get free pads to
