I make a schematic drawing with lots of parts. When I'm finished I'm going to give the parts a name like R1, T1 and so on. After that I do the values or part numbers like 220k or LM386, something like that. And after that I put some calculations in the schematic in explaining how I got there with that particular value. I do this with different layers, read colors. Blue for component id, red for value, green for calculations, light blue for calculated value's or measured value's.
So far nothing new. I can set font in Options, I can set the layer=color in the workspace bar. But there are more options in the parameter field from Text found in the toolbar. For every entry I have to adjust X size, Y size, Angle, Mirrored, Italic and Boldface. It would be nice if I had an option to set those "fixed" until I update the fields next time. In this way I can do the above much faster. I already copy same values to other components, but still for a lot of components I have to do all over and set the named six every time again, as blank already exists it is mostly narrowed down to X size, Y size and Boldface.
@JoopN, An idea I've had for a while was to be able to change the parameters of multiple selected identical primitives. This would solve this problem from what I understand.
In the current state, if you select multiple primitives, you can only change the layer (even if the primitives are of the same type). It would be nice if you could also change other parameters.
Shall we close this issue?
I think we can close this; what was requested has been implemented.
