Creating symbols for multi-gate parts (Symbol Editor problem)

profil Oct 24, 2017 10:52 AM

When I want to create a symbol for a device containing several gates, I have to enter a list of comma separated pin numbers as pin number but the symbol editor does not allow that, the error message is:
Illegal property value, the regular expression for this property value is: \n*

The workaround is to open the symbol file in a text editor and enter the list of pin numbers there, but I wonder whether that is the way I should do that.

Here is the information about the version of the symbol editor:
Flow Id: X-ENTP VX.2.2
Full Flow Name: Xpedition Enterprise X-ENTP VX.2.2
Exact Access Date: 2017/05/01
SDD Platform: win64
AHP Platform: win64

UPDATE Install Info
UPDATE Name: Xpedition Enterprise X-ENTP VX.2.2 - Update 1

In the Xpedition flow you don't need to put the pin numbers on the pins in order for multi-gate parts to package, the packaging process will add them from the PDB during the packaging run.
But this should be allowed in the tools anyway, I suggest you look at the Pin Number property in the Property Definition Editor in Library Mananger and ensure that the regular expression for Pin Number is set to (\n|,)* you may have an out-of-date setting in there.

It works in the Symbol Editor after changing the regular expression in the Property Definition Editor as you said.
