Hey,
i have a lot of buses which com from hierarchical sheets like this:
It would be nice if i could directly merge them into one bus signal when they come together and instead of having x seperate busses like this:
only having one BO[1…16] for example.
Up unil now i wasn’t able to find the right sytax to make that happen. Does anyone know how i can make that work?
Thanks
Directly merging busses is currently not possible.
You have to unfold all source busses and connect the unfolded nets into the destination bus.

Thanks @mf_ibfeew . Is that generally not possible or just because of the way i implemented the buses in my schematic?
Merging busses is generally not possible (current situation, so at least kicad version <= v8).
There is this open gitlab issue wanting a similar feature: Schematic Editor [Feature request]: Would it be possible to add an easier way to make bus branching? (#13673) · Issues · KiCad / KiCad Source Code / kicad · GitLab
Regarding your bus-drawings: this looks ok, you have drawn simple vector busses.
