net port whem import from orcad

#1 Post by Eternauta » 27 Sep 2014, 05:12

Import an edif schematics from Orcad Capture works as expected, but at every named net is added a net port and the schematics in DipTrace became unredable, please see attached file. There is a way to avoid the net port?

I have the same problem. Having the unwanted net port makes the import a mess, and pretty useless. Why hasn't this been fixed after so many years??

The OrCAD net structure is different from DipTrace. During the import process, different functions of the two programs need to combine.
In several cases, the net ports are used to connect parts of the same net.
