Tactile switch with internally connected pins

The footprints for such parts in the official lib are setup to fit the spst symbol (they have the pads doubled)

You can of course make your own symbol with your own footprint that has all 4 pins with separate numbers. This will give you a bit more control over what needs to be connected. The symbol could look like this:

button_no_01x02.lib (594 Bytes)

I advise against using the dpst symbol as it represents something very different.
