DFN: Shared UUIDs #68

Open dbrgn opened 4 years ago

dbrgn commented 4 years ago

If I'm not mistaken, some UUIDs (e.g. objects on the documentation layer) are shared for multiple footprints.

@ubruhin that's probably not the intention, even though it works for documentation layer items, right?

Generally everything inside a library element is kind of "namespaced" by the library element itself, so theoretically it's not an issue if for example polygon UUIDs are reused in other packages. But I'd still consider it bad practice, so I'd try to avoid sharing UUIDs.
