Among them are entries to connect the digital IO pins D11, D12, D13 to the ICSP1 header pins for MOSI, MISO, and SCK. The (custom) `arduino_uno_for_shields` par … t has multiple bus definitions. I can change this one to use that convention too.

As noted the easy way out in this case is use the real world pin number starting at pin1 which is what I usually do.

FritzingCheckPart.py will (if you enable the option which I do) issue a warning for duplicate name values and I usually try and avoid them. I expect the code will screw up on the above replacedby if the name is not unique in the fzp file and that may have been the reason for the original warning. The parts file format document used to say something to the effect “the name should be unique” but it looks like that has been removed in an update. In this case you can use the replacedby attribute on the obsolete connector, with the value being either the id or name of the replacement connector. 'But sometimes the replacement connector does not have the same id. The reason for the pin numbers (which can be fixed by using the pin number rather than the connector number) is that the name field in the fzp file should be unique (so a name of GND should not be repeated in the name field in the same fzp file.) The reason was said to be that the code will use the name field to try and differentiate a part or perhaps it is this (from the parts file format file) It feels strange to have names as GND6 or GND8. It seems weird that the name does not match the pin number, see below:įinally, I would remove the different numbers of the GND or other connections in the name (I am not sure if this is possible). In any case, I am not sure if we should start counting the connectors in 1 and not in 0. And finally, depending on where you are with the mouse when hovering over the GND connector, you see different info, see below:įinally, I would remove the different numbers of the GND or other connections in the name (I am not sure if this is possible). For example, sometimes you want to generate different grounds for the analog and digital circuits or add filters to some power supply pins. Additionally, there could be cases where the designer wants to not connect all together. I think it would be less confusing to newbies. I would prefer to show all of them in the schematic symbol. For example, the GND has three connectors (6, 8, and 18). However, in the current implementation, the svg of the schematic still needs individual connectors.

The advantage of combining all the GND and power pins in the schematic view is that we can reuse the symbol for other physical packages. I am not sure what is the exact problem with the buses.
