Re: gEDA-user: gattrib not showing part_numbers

[Oliver King-Smith <oliverks1@xxxxxxxxx>]

   It seems like gnetlist could be used to "promote" an attribute to the
   schematic.  Does anyone know if someone has tried that?

   IIRC, gattrib will handle attributes embedded in the schematic, not
   the symbol.  The reason is that gattrb cannot reach into a symbol and
   modify its attributes.  It only edits attributs in the schematic.
   Therefore, this is a feature.
