Changing resistor designators manually leads to non-assembled components
Prerequisites
- [X] I have read FAQ
- [X] I use KiKit at least version 1.4.0 (older version are not supported)
KiKit version
kikit, version 1.3.0+26.g56c696a
KiCAD version
7.0.7
Operating system
Windows 11
Description
I have a multi project PCB. I want to swap out some resistors to have another output voltage configuration. However, when running the panalizing command, the components are missing. @yaqwsx I send you all the files via email.
Steps to Reproduce
see above
-
Go to folder panel in KiCad Command Prompt
-
Execute the command "kikit panelize --layout "grid; rows: 3; cols: 3; space: 0mm; rotation: 90deg;alternation: cols;" --tabs "fixed; width: 20mm; vcount: 1; hcount: 0" --cuts "vcuts" --post "millradius: 1mm" --source "tolerance: 5mm" --text "simple; text: , rc5 production run; anchor: mt; voffset: 2mm; hjustify: center; vjustify: center;" --framing "railstb; width: 4mm; space: 2mm;" --fiducials "3fid; hoffset: 2mm; voffset: 2mm; coppersize: 2mm; opening: 1mm;" ../DCC6024UT.kicad_pcb panel.kicad_pcb"
-
Go to the gerber panel folder, search for R1041. You won't see something. Problem: But it should be there.
-
Open the Panel in PCB new, search for R1041. You will see the resistor.
-
Open the schematic in the base folder, search for R1041. You will see the resistor.
I believe this was already resolved in the original e-mail conversation.
