What are "reusable sheets"? I have tried a couple of things. Copying a
whole file to another project; File->Append; copying from inside one file
into another with a text editor; and copy/paste in eeschema. Is reusable
sheet something different? If yes, I guess it's not really used often.
Every now and then people ask in the user forum about the ways of reusing
schematic blocks, but I haven't heard about other than the mentioned
solutions. And I don't see how editing in one project would break something
in another with those solutions, because in all cases schematic is copied
in its current condition, and the problems must be dealt with in the moment
the schematic is taken into another project. Further editing in the
original project wouldn't have any effect to the other project.
