Re: Multi-Part Components
Hi I second Andy position. Kicad is a PCB design tool, not a full project manager and doesn't seem to be intended to replace the whole project team. If we start enlarging the scope of the tool, one of

Re: Is this a bug?
Sorry, I left out a step. You need to export a .STF file from CVPCB with which to do the backannotation - you can't use the .CMP file directly. Once you've finished you no longer need the .CMP or .STF

Re: Is this a bug?
Edit...Backannotate will get the footprints back out of the .CMP file and into EESchema. Export the BOM and check the list is sane. Once you have done that I personally would suggest you delete the

Re: Is this a bug?
Gaaa! I hate CVPCB. The problem is that you need to ensure the .CMP file generated by CVPCB and the .NET file generated by EESchema match. If you miss a stage, you end up with weirdness. Personally I

Is this a bug?
Or did I do something wrong? I created a multisheet schematic with a top level sheet and then 5 sheets in parallel below that. I then used the CvPcb button and filled in all the footprints to

Re: Multi-Part Components
Interfacing to existing databases would be a great feature of a parts management tool, but it is not in itself a parts management tool. Besides octopart, KiCad users could make good use of interfaces

Re: Holes in modules
Modules don't have any concept of "pins" as such they are all pads. Pads with matching pin numbers will connect to the eeschema component with the same pin numbers. You can make odd shaped pads by
