Hi and thanks for the last helpful suggestion that got me over a hump.
There are a few things that I am not clear on with symbols and
footprints. Example built into the 7400.sym we have
net=Vcc:14 and net-Gnd:7. Yet when I click on the symbol on the
schematic I do not see this. I am only curious as I wanted to change it
to 3.3V:14 without editing and creating a new symbol.
Second on a 9 pin sub min D I have pins 10 and 11 showing up as shorts
since I have connected the mounting pin/studs to ground. Can I edit the
symbol on the schematic with net=Gnd:10 etc without hitting a snag?
The Net window was really good for de-snagging, I only had to select an
offending signal to see the connections then click a component to be
taken there. The only snag was after flipping the board to see the
solder side it seems to go to the correct xy location for an un-flipped
board. Thanks again for all the previous help Ian.
