4 years ago If you are in Windows, download Greenshot (https://greenshot.org/)
Set up a hotkey and then you can capture situations like this (that
is my experience)

This problem I haven’t been able to capture as an image,
because it will only happen when you hover over the pins in pcb
view (which stops when I exit to take the screen capture) so to
see this you will need to load the two parts in to Fritzing and
try it. If you hover over the left most pin of J1 (the non
hybrid variant 1 part) you will get the message:
NEG-Barrel: negative
barrel connector (4)
2.1mm Barrel jack with
terminal block
as expected.
the right pin gives
POS-Barrel: positive
barrel connector (3)
2.1mm Barrel jack with
terminal block
again as expected. The problem is with the hybrid=“yes” part J2
where the hovering over the left connector gets:
NEG-TERN:negative
connector terminal block
(2)
2.1mm Barrel jack with
terminal block
which is wrong, this is the barrel jack connection pin 4 not
the terminal block pin 2. The right pin gives:
NEG-TERN:negative
connector terminal block
(2)
2.1mm Barrel jack with
terminal block
which is also wrong as it is the positive barrel jack pin 3.
Build:
<e.g. Version 0.9.3 (b5c895d32 2016-04-19) Cocoa [Qt 5.12.2]
Operating System:
<Windows 7>
Steps to reproduce:
download these two parts:
2.1mm Barrel Jack with Terminal
Block-improved.fzpz.zip
2.1mm Barrel Jack with Terminal
Block-improved-hybrid.fzpz.zip
(remove the trailing .zip to get the actual part files)
Load both in to Fritzing and drag both in to a sketch
in pcb view hover over the pins of both parts, as
documented above, one part (without hybrid="yes") displays
the labels correctly. The hybrid="yes" part displays
incorrect labels.
Expected Behaviour
both parts should display the correct labels. Given that there
is a workaround (not using hybrid to suppress pcb view), the
correct fix (as mentioned in the parts format file document) may
be to remove the hybrid="yes" method of suppressing views
(although the code would need to remain for current parts that
use it, so maybe mot a big saving.)
