edit the pin design

autodeskguest
autodeskguest over 15 years ago

Hello,

 

Do you know if there is a possibility to edit the library pin design ?

For design and aesthetics reasons I would like smaller text for the pin name

and number.

 

Thanks,

 

Jerome

    I think the pin number will move outside of the component outline if you

    use the short pin rather than the zero length pin. The example you

    showed does not have pin names, only numbers, they do not appear much

    smaller than the currently used ones. I believe that if you make your

    schematic symbols larger you will get most of the effect you want. My

    experience is that EAGLE always scales the schematic onto the paper

    anyway, so big symbols will then get proportionally shrunk with the

    text. This is in V4, maybe v5 is different.
