This is a known issue. It cannot be fixed until the new schematic and
component library file formats are implement. The current component
library file format has no way of supporting this. The goal is to get
the new file formats implemented during the current development cycle.
Whether that happens or not remains to be seen.

Hi everyone,
today I started to create a symbol for a microcontroller.
Since there are so many pins I decided to split the device to 3 gates:
One for general GPIO, one for Analog Inputs, one for supply and clock
and jtag etc.
This results in different sized symbols for each gate.
Currently there seems to be no option to place the Reference and Value
fields at different locations for each gate.
So when I place the fields on the correct location for one symbol this
results in either the fields being right accross the other symbol or too
far off the symbol and therefore clashing with other symbols in the
schematic.
There's even an old bug report for it:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1334502
Are there any plans to make it possible to place the fields
independently for each gate?
Best Regards,
André
