Using TinyCAD with FreePCB. How does one add the "Footprint" parameter (for instance a capacitor with CK05 as the footprint) to a component in TinyCAD, so when...
... Simply click the component, in the tools windows add and compile the packge field. The package name must be one of the name in freepcb libraries. Regards. ...

Hello, I see when we do a spice netlist by using a hierarchial symbol, it just generates a flat netlist with the node names modified by appending certain...
Hello, Another thing I think would be very useful and save a lot of time would be to update the symbols from the library if the library gets updated. Right now...
In general netlisting with hierarchical symbols doesn't work at all right now. However, since there is currently an effort to update TinyCAD this is a good...
Help please,  as i run tinycad the attached error message pops up and tinycad cannot access the libraries. As a result i cannot make any new diagrams.  ...
I don't think I would find this very useful. Once I have created a design I would not want it to alter at a later date due to an external factor. This would...
... I am in complete agreement. This would create more problems than it would solve. Having a version control on the schematic symbol would help in making ...
Right now when I put a hierarchial symbol it does netlist out but with 1_ prefixed on all node names and component names. Another thing which would be very...
I agree with you and Phil, automatic update can be very troublesome. But there should be a feature to update all symbols from a library's new version to create...
Couldn't see your error message - this group software doesn't seem to handle attachments well. I had a similar sounding problem when some of my libraries...
I don't think this is a good idea. I f the library part is correct in the first place then why would you want to change it? Unless the pins on the replacement...
If I had to guess (and get a jab in at systems engineers at the same time) I'd say that systems engineers who see the schematic with the old part will be...
Hi! I'm new in the group. I'm working in a circuit that use CMOS 4027. When I pick it from library I found 2 errors: in part B, the name of pin 4 say CD1 and...
Hi, I have Ver. 2.50.10 working on WIN98 SE. However, there is one issue I can't figure it out. Created new socket symbol DIP14 and added to library. When I...
You don't overtype the highlighted "New Symbol". Across to the right there's a pane defining value, name, reference etc. If you edit the "Name" field to what...
Hello, I am having problems with some items that come up on my design check. I keep getting a "this item is not connected to anything else" error all over my...
See messages #1178 and around #740. As mentioned elsewhere this sounds like a 'snap to grid' problem - ie. it was not switched on either when creating the...
I have looked at existing messages on this subject and can confirm that I always have "snap to grid" active - I use a 0.1" grid almost exclusively. I did...

If possible it would be helpful if you could post your design file in the [Files/Bug Files] area. If not you could send as a private message. I note that you...
Thanks for info - I will post it, if I can find the appropriate place. I had to create all the library shapes I needed because the existing ones were off-grid,...
Hi again - I decided you would probably want to look at the library components I used, since they may well be the source of the problem, so I thought it would...
Sorry but I couldn't get your attachments. This UG software doesn't handle them properly. The best way is to upload them to the [Files/Bug Files] area (see...
