Pcb can load a .pcb file with the "load element to buffer" command, which you can thing rotate, move to the other side, etc and then paste wherever you like (again and again). You'll still have a problem getting the netlist to see that collection as a "component".
If you spend the effort to make a symbol, (using djboxsym or my variant jgboxsym), to represent the schematic you want to reuse you can use it more than once and get a netlist that works by using the flattened hierarchy method -- see http://www.geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:faq-gschem#can_gschem_do_hierarchical_designs_with_sub_sheets http://www.geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:faq-gschem#are_there_limitations_to_hierarchy_design about schematics, and http://www.gedasymbols.org/user/john_griessen/tools/pcb-hier-cells about pcb usage to replicate sections with renumbered refdes's John _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
