KiBoM grouping testpoints with different values #152

Closed bartlettD closed 3 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to generate a BOM which has several Keystone Compact THT test points of various colours.

They all have different values on the schematic to denote their different colours (and PN's) but for some reason when I generate the BOM they're all grouped together under a single test point line item.

Is there something wrong with my config or should this not be happening? bom.txt

And a bit more digging solves the case.

Its seems that because the KiCad default test point symbols are in the Connectors library. KiBoM classes them as connectors and groups them.

Setting group_connectors = 0 in bom.ini fixes this.
