Back-annotation of the current flowing through a pin

Hello,

Is there a label (similar to cdsTerm("pin_name") for voltage) to view, on a symbol, the value of the current flowing through a pin?

Thank you

Aldo

    In that case you need to use Edit->Component Display in the schematic editor to change the labels to show currents rather than voltages (do the annotation of voltages first from ADE to make life easier).


    The Edit Component Display form has been replaced in IC616 with a new Annotation Setup which fixes most of the issues with the old Component Display form and is a lot more flexible.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
