Hi, Igor2
I think I am getting somewhere. I was following the instructions given
by gsch2pcb-rnd to run the command file. I saved as lihata v6 board is
now a .lht file. Now when I optimize the rats nest a log window pops
up (I don't think it did this before) and from reading the output I
realized that pins 3-6 were all named pin3 (I feel dumb now). I also
found that another part that I was having trouble with also had an
incorrectly numbered pin. I fixed the .fp files and tried re-importing
the schematic (using import schematics, as you suggested) I still see
the same isues. How do I refresh the footprint?
Thanks,
Jesse
