Re: gEDA-user: Out and In symbols in gschem & getting net names to come out in PCB



   Really?  So now instead of having a nice clean schematic with net names
   like clk, _clk, reset and _reset I have to have clk:1, _clk:1...
   Is the way around that making the net attribute not visible and making
   the value attribute visible giving it the net name I want to show up on
   the schematic?

     For some reason gschem insists that all nets end in the two
     characters :1
     So a net that I would normally call VCC I call VCC:1 in gschem
     I don't know why, but that's the way it is.
     Failure to add the :1 results in behaviour like what you describe.
