We added the ability to rename all polarized footprints to any pin name you want. P, N, C, A, +, - or any ASCII character you want to use. Available in the V25.11 pre-release coming out Sunday 10/12/25. ------------- Stay connected - follow us! https://twitter.com/PCBLibraries" rel="nofollow - X - http://www.linkedin.com/company/pcb-libraries-inc-/" rel="nofollow - LinkedIn |
