This is an experimental release of the new greatly enhanced Schematic Editor with improvements written by 3rd year students doing HLP. It will have bugs.
Main features:
- components can be rotated and flipped
- custom component ports can be reordered, and moved to different sides
- clock symbols on custom components that need clocks
- Prettier wires (3 different versions).
- component labels can be graphically moved
- some bugs that required rewrite now fixed
- NB - many issues will be closed by these features, however issues are left open till we have finished the additions
Various other improvements and fixes are expected over Easter. If your favourite request is not yet done add a comment to the issue!
