[Solved] Ratsnest not showing because of pin number mismatch I think

Hey there,

sorry for flooding the forum with my newbie questions.
I created a schematic for my pcb. Some symbols are needed several times so I duplicated them. now I have a mismatch between the pin numbers. I read that the pins which should be connected should have the same pin number. But the duplicated symbols all have the same number (1). How can I assign different number to the symbols without creating new symbols for every duplicate? Why do the pin look like they are connected but in fact are not connected.

When I import the netlist into my pcbeditor by pressing F8 I get the following error. I placed the no connect flag for the tn and t pins but it seems like they are not working. So many strange obstacles…

Warning: No net found for symbol jack24 pin TN.
Warning: No net found for symbol jack24 pin T.
Warning: No net found for symbol jack24 pin S.

Show jack24, which is the connector that is generating the errors.

I had these errors for all jacks. I solved it now. I was not aware that PIN number can also be a string.
The pin number from my jack symbol and the jack footprint were not the same. I renamed them so that they are the same and no the ratsnest apears and routing functions as aspected. It is quite a learning curve but finaly things bear fruits.
