Feature request: Partial replicate layout (based on selection) #74

Open memen45 opened 3 months ago

This tool is super powerful when designing boards with multiple hierarchical sheets. There is one issue I ran into (and did so before). I would like to replicate only a part of the hierarchical sheet. Some components are too large to fit in a regular/linear pattern for each hierarchical sheet, so I had to group them differently. The rest of the hierarchical sheet can be perfectly replicated, but there is currently no way to replicate the layout based on e.g. a selection only.

Is this something that is feasible to implement? Looking forward to hear your ideas!

You can use the groups to achieve this.

with groups you can limit what gets replicated. Use the 'replicate group only' checkbox
