Ibom is summarizing components with the same value, but different part number
Closed this issue · 5 comments
i have 2 resistors, both 1206 - and 10k - BUT - different partnumbers (one is 5%, the other is 0,1%)
Both resistors get grouped in one group, but thats not right - and uncool if u want to place the components, because they are different resistors ^^
You can configure how parts are grouped however you want, check the fields tab.
If you don't have part number in the fields list then you should add it as field in eeschema and update the board.
What do u mean with "fields tab"?
i have 2 different resistors, with different partnumbers, but the same value, so why its getting grouped?

Ah, you should have stated that you use EasyEDA, when its not specified I'm assuming KiCad because that's the majority of my user base.
What do u mean with "fields tab"?
I mean the fields tab in the configuration dialog
Ordinarily that's where grouping is configured. Unfortunately for EasyEDA custom fields are not supported yet, so while you still can get that dialog if you run the script with --show-dialog flag, you can't select grouping by part number because part number will not show up on the list of fields. See #348.
Workaround for now is to indicate special case resistors where you care about accuracy in the value. It may be a good idea to have that show up on your schematic anyway.
ahh, yeah, its easy eda - sorry.
hmm, i found a workaround, but this would be nice in the ibom in the future maybe ^^
It is now supported, get latest ibom from github master branch and pass --show-dialog to the launch command line.
You will be able to configure additional fields.
