Individually Edit Pin Names?

Software
1

Is it possible to edit Pin Name offset/orientation/size individually? If not, is there a reason why? I have symbols that I’d like to be able to rotate Pin Names, and make some Pin Names larger/smaller than others.

Seems like it should be a really simple implementation (at least from the outside). Would really clean up my symbols and make them easier to read. Like this one…

Would be great to be able to rotate these names and make them larger. If they were larger in the current orientation, they would smash up against each other.

Can this please be added, or if I’m missing how, can someone please inform me?? Thanks!

offset: No
orientation: No
size: Yes (see pin properties)

File format restriction. Might be lifted with the new file format. But for that we sadly need to wait until kicad v6.

That’s a bummer. Especially considering V6 is probably, what, 2 years away?

The nightlies will have it sooner, caveat being: bugs and incompatibility :wink:
