V7 hierarchy sharing a bus fails

Hi all, I am trying to share a bus down a hierarchy, but I simply cannot get it to work! My top shematic looks like shown below:


And sheet 2 lokks like this

After updating PCB from Shematic (with no errors) the layout looks like this

As you may see on the last picture R1 connects to J1, but not R2 from sheet 2. DRC confirms this, there is a lot of errors, which I cannot see how to solve.

PS. I have made a “Bus Alias Definition” as you see

Here is the zip file:

You need to use {MyBus} not MyBus as the bus labels.

Hi craftyjon,
Thank you for the hint, but I have actually already tried that. It did not solve the problem! I have tried all sort of things that came to my mind, but with no success. If you could find time to change the attached .zip file so that the nets are connected across the hierarchy is fixed, I would be very happy.

Thank you in advance!

Hi craftyjon,

Thats really wierd!
I opened your fixed version and it is OK as you say. After seeing that I changed it it my original file you started with and it WORKS! Then I did the same with my actual design that has around 250 bus entries and it WORKED!

I am 100% sure that I exactly did that without success!? The only thing that is different is that KiCAD 7.0.1 has been closed down in the meantime!? Can there be some rare bug?

Anyway, now it works. Thank you so much for your prompt help.

Best Regards
Bent
