It's still a little tedious but I've started to do such a thing: Every part I buy I keep in a spreadsheet with footprint, part #, manufacturer, etc. I can...
Tried your example and got lots of 'not connected' on the resistors. Replaced them with my resistor symbol and rewired and got no problems. Put 'no connects'...
Stephen, I only suggested Freepcb since Freepcb seems to have the most references, any pcb program would be fine. Also, Freepcb uses the footrprint names from ...
Hi Steven, This is the way I solve the "problem": In TinyCAD, for every symbol you can add a number of aliases that pinpoints a specific component. This way...
Do you add an alias by "Add Name" when storing a component in the library? This is the only way I see to do it, but then the properties seem consistent for...
Yes - Once you have added the name, select it and you can then edit/add attributes and the description to what you want. Each alias will be listed separately...
Thanks Phil! I tried this out and it works great. It looks like any pin designator you want can go in the number box, including +, -, A, C, AC1, AC2 etc, so...
Hi Just wondered if anyone can help? I have created the schematic and managed to get it imported in to veecad but all symbols are showing as the same symbol,...
Darren, On any NETLIST import the receivng program (Veecad) tries to exactly match up the names of the components with those that are in its library. .If there...
Thanks for that, I am working away for the next week but as soon as I get home I'll send the netlist on. Regards, Darren. Mycroft2152 <mycroft2152@...>...
I think the position is := Actual text string can be moved and resized. You can change the size of text using the 'Font' property of the text. (select the text...
I added a custom netlist format for my own tools which supports hierarchical netlisting. If anyone is interested I can share the details. I basically had to...

Thanks for your help. Indeed I went freehand when creating my symbols and used the grid when placing them on a schematic. I tried again using the grid in...
Once I get it in a more complete form then I'll post it along with my libraries. I've been hoping to generate some excitement about TinyCAD so I hope this...
I would be interested in being able to use hierarchical designs in TinyCAD. I looked at this some time ago and found that TinyCAD got its knickers in a twist...
Hi, Does anyone know how to display unicode? If I try +223F (Sinus) with a unicode font, I only get the characters from codepage 850... Best Regards, ikke_nl...
Hi, Finally home after a week in Aberdeen. In Veecad it appears that the only symbol is the 555 timer, which has been replicated x amount of times in place of...
Hi Darren, You have here something similar to the "Which came first, the chicken or the egg" problem. Tinycad is a schematic only program and as such Tinycad...
Thanks for that, I'll give it a go. Darren. Mycroft2152 <mycroft2152@...> wrote: Hi Darren, You have here something similar to the "Which came first, the...
To add my 2p worth: There is another consideration - these days the same symbol may map to many different components and may also map to several different ...
Get the datasheet for the 18f2550. Decide how you want the symbol to look or copy the datasheet symbol for a start. Read the TinyCAD help system* and messages...
I have created a symbol for the connector the joins a microcontroller board with a custom board. I have defined the electric type of each pin following the...
