Copy block

david_f over 14 years ago

Hi guys,

I'm in charge of a test board PCB and I've 20 similar blocks.

I'd like to know if it's possible to copy a placement/wiring according to the schematic.

Thanks for help.

David.

Thanks for your answer Josef-Michael.

But with this way, I've got a problem with the cummon nets. In fact, when I copy/paste a block, the cummon nets are not connected together in the board.

Is there a solution to this instead of put cummon nets one by one?

Regards.

David

the key is to name every net with an unique name (no $nnn). the supply
nets need not to be named individually, they will count up, e.g. gnd1, gnd2
...
after pasting rename all to "gnd" & answer the question to connect them with
yes. do this with the other supply nets in the same way.
