Layout XL: How can I create different pins for an electrically connected layout?

Hello,

I have created a custom resistor in Layout XL. I am trying to add different pins for the input and the output of this resistor, but when I add a pin to the resistor, the pin information propagates through the resistor to the output. How can I add different pins to this electrically connected layout?

Kind regards.

    I have "solved" the issue. I just added the input and the output pins as needed and ignored the short warnings in the 'Annotation Browser' tab. After this I assigned layout instance terminals to nets by using the 'Define Device Correspondence' menu.
