, I am relatively new to EDA and looking for assistance with an issue with hierarchical labels when using the multiboard workflow with KiKit: Multiboard workflow - KiKit — Automation for KiCAD
I want my pull up resistor to be in the board specific sheet even though it will be placed on a separate board. The component who’s pullup resistor is on “interface” sheet/board, but it will really be placed on the “main” sheet/board, near the GPIO. Doing so of course results in different nets due to hierarchy. KiKit explicitly says not to use any global labels, and I cant think of another way around it elegantly. Do I accept defeat and just move it to the same sheet as the MCU?
TLDR, I want the nets of “interface/3V3” and “main/3V3” to be the same even though components are specified in different sheets. To my knowledge this can only be done with global labels, which KiKit explicitly states not to use.
Due to my noviceness, I am uncertain of if the issue I face is due to my lack of knowledge in KiCad. Or a misunderstanding of KiKit’s usage. So I have also asked this there: Hierarchical label help in multiboard setup · yaqwsx/KiKit · Discussion #828 · GitHub
Thanks,
