I made a custom power port (called “24V_Return”) that doesn’t get the same treatment as other power ports. When I create a hierarchical design, and place the “24V_Return” symbol, it is not connected to the other “24V_Return” instances in other sheets (unlike for the “+3V3” node for instance). Hopefully the image below captures what I’m trying to say:
Thanks for catching that. I changed it to “Power Input” but that didn’t fix the connectivity problem. I’d expect that would only effect ERC errors/warnings, right?
I’m about to tackle another board where I’m going to need Hierarchical Schematic sheets. Reading this topic has probably saved me several moments of greif.
