What am i doing wrong? I can see both main pcb and subcircuit in list

[JLA4444]

I tried to use your plugin. But I can't get it to work. I can see both the subcircuit and the main pcb in the "configure each sub-pcb layout" list. Does this indicate an issue?

On the subcircuit i have run DRC checks and there is no parity issue between the pcb and schematic.

Make sure you have enabled the circuits you want to replicate in the "Choose which layouts" section (This is done by double clicking each one) . It is normal for the main pcb file to show up in the "Configure" section.

It might be helpful for you to provide an example project that replicates the problem, if you can.

I noticed the double click feature.

See the attached file for an example project.

It works fine for me on KiCAD 8.0.2 on Windows 11. See video:

What is the version and platform you are on? Is a .hierpcb.log file generated in the same folder?

The bug disappeared when i opened the project again. But i managed to replicate it again by not removing so much from my project. This time i tried to restart KiCad to make sure the bug is still there.

The log file is in the zip

Hey, thanks! I'll take a crack at it when I next have some time.
