XREF flag options

rtzaudio
rtzaudio over 14 years ago

I would like to see an option within the XREF object itself that

indicates whether the flag outline & cross ref data are drawn or not. I

understand this is controlled by the global XREF settings now, but it

sure would be nice to use this feature to label the ends of nets also

that don't necessarily go off to another sheet.

 

Also, the xref sheet/row/col data should print AFTER the net label name

for rotation values >= 180 degrees (eg when on the left hand or bottom

side of net end).

 

I still want to see other options for the flag style so that allows

drawing like Orcad with the double arrow head styles (eg ->> NETNAME and

-<< NETNAME) rather than the framed arrow around the text. Another

option would be to draw a small port flag and put the text outside to

the left or right.

 

In general, I just don't like the arrow border drawn around the text -

it's just plain ugly on complicated drawings with all the flags sizes

different lengths and makes reading the names difficult. PLEASE give us

more options for the XREF feature!!

 

Bob

    (first, I dont know why my iphone nntp client doesnt quoue some of the

    followups.. sorry for that)

    When it comes to xref or page connectors, it should be a schematic

    primitive. I used to draw in DesignWorks (capilano computing) and I think

    Eagle has a lot to learn from that sw, both on page connectors and bus

    handling.
