Custom library connector, pins don't connect on board

ckambiselis

Hello,

 

I have bought some HDMI board connectors for a project and I have to build a library for it since I can't find an HDMI connector library.

 

I have created the library (device, package, symbol) and connected the package SMD pads with pin of the symbol, but when I wire the pins with a connector on the schematic, the wires don't appear on the board side. Am I missing something, this is my first custom library.

 

Thanks

Oscar

    The usual reason for this is that you failed to put your symbol pins

    aligned on the 0.1" grid used in schematics. I've not got V6 installed

    here but looking at the XML you seem to have defined them on a 2.54 inch

    grid by mistake. Of course I could just be totally misreading the XML!

     

    Cheers,
