Aliases of a given component (an op amp for instance) are intended to solve this problem. Aliases share the graphic shape, but have their own name, documentation and key word.2009/10/8 Vesa Solonen <vsolonen@cc. hut.fi <mailto:vsolonen@...>> Glue logic and general opamps, connectors etc. sould use just _one_ schematic symbol for _all_ variants. The details should be added at cvpcb stage or while editing the schematic, by pull down menu or something. Otherwise we end up making incredibly large library. Heavy symbol way may be easier to implement, but it's no way smart.
I created the .dcm (.DoCuMent) files and .mdc (ModuleDocuMent) files mechanism some years ago when the local network used by by students at scool were slow, and these files were a workaround to the slow links between the server that stores libraries and All Kicad files and user's PC These small files allow user's PC to display some info (module list in Cvpcb for instance) quickly. Loading the full libraries could take a while (more than 10 or 20 seconds, each time you want the see a footprint, due to the low link, the limited performances of network cards, ans the PCs).Now it seems that Jean-Pierre may have thought that when defining separate .dcm system. Could you Jean-Pierre comment on light vs heavy symbol system and your ideas from the past decisions?
Now this problem does not exist, and separate.dcm and .mdc files are not very useful.
