Because I am prone to “operator errors” with the keyboard, I am really looking for an automated way. Sure, I can add those manually in a variety of ways, including what BlackCoffee showed. That, however, does not satisfy my need.
Empty fields would go a small ways, but having the fields pre-named is important as that takes keyboard entry. Most of the fields can be filled using copy and paste from a manufacturer or distributor web site, but name usually takes keyboard entry.
Where do you find information about field name templates?
What I have started doing is manual creation of those fields in a part, say resistor, then copy and paste that part within the schematic. That helps, but it then gives you the sense of the new part properties all being filled in, making it easy to forget that new content is needed. And, you still have to get that first instance right. Maybe most of you don’t have keyboard problems or memory that works right every time, but not all of us are so blessed. Some help would really be appreciated!
