gEDA-user: Generic net-connection symbols



Hi there,

I've been trying to make a couple of generic symbols for power connections (GND, VCC etc.)

I've got the following in my VCC symbol:

- A pin with attributes "pintype=pwr", "pinlabel=SUPPLY", "pinnumber=1", "pinseq=1", all hidden
- A visible unattached attribute "net=VCC:1" that gets promoted so I can change which particular voltage this symbol connects to

Will this work as expected when netlisting?  Do I even need all of those pin attributes?

Also, I'm working on the symbol for an (unslotted) 456-pin BGA.  Do I need to use "pinseq" attributes?  They'll just about double the time to create the symbol if I do. :-(

Cheers,

Peter
