Symbols with >1 char in ref have extra space between ref letters and numbers

Open villains opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

For example:

  • Symbol with ref J100 will be properly exported as "J100"
  • Multiple identical symbols will be exported as "J100 J101 J102" etc.
  • Symbol with ref RX100 will be incorrectly exported as "RX 100"
  • Multiple identical symbols will be exported as "RX 100 RX 101 RX 102" etc.

All of the above happens when using CSV format. I have not yet tried HTML or other formats.

My method of naming some symbols with 2-char ref is probably a bit non-standard, but my schematic has a large number of connectors and using 2-char refs helps to keep things easier to understand & relatively sane.

HI @villains Sorry for the delay reply.

I've not been able to replicate this issue when I modified the test xml file (Example/example.xml). Would you be able to post an xml file that has this issue? Thank you in advance.
