Use net labels only on connectors and copy/paste the connector with net labels from board to board… that’s not efficient neither reliable. I know Adafruit have added a part to show. That works great but it’s not a simple design process. I am trying to design an add-on board using Fritzing but cannot find a 26 way header to connect to the Raspberry. Then when I want to move the position of the wire, I just move the pin in the connector and reopen the sketch(es). Do someone have ideas, experiences, … and recommendations ?Ĭreate a connector with “functional” pin. The problem is when I change on a side it needs to change on the other side. This pinout is constrained by the layout of the two cards which means a lot of back and forth… This means, I can choose wire 1 for vcc and later, after progressing in the layout of the first card, move vcc to wire 2. As this connection is not standardized (not like computer devices with IDE, parallel, …), the pinout of the cable and connector is chosen to make the pcb traces simple.
