Delete a Port of a Module in Eagle V7

Question

Hi,

I have created a hierarchical schematic with 3 modules.

I defined the ports for each module and I connected the different ports between the modules.

Questions :

- How to move the ports around the border of the module after their creation?

- How to delete a port of a module after its creation?

- How to redefine the port direction after its creation ?

Thank you.

I haven't done anything with modules yet. (Not sure whether it improves on

my current workflow since I'm already using multiple page schematics and

labeled nets. Now, if the module idea worked for board layout, I'd be

VERY interested!) Anyway, check out the video

ctrl-left click to show the dialog to change the port direction...
