How to reuse the hierarchical block?

ChristopherG

Hello, everyone.

I am now learning the CAPTURE's complex hierarchical design structure and I am using the software version 9.1. I am now encoutering a confusing problem. My problem is same as the author of the theme:www.chronology.com/.../ShowPost.aspx

  That is I want to reuse the descend schematic of a hierarchical block(suppose named A) many times, because there are many similar circuit blocks in my design. Firstly I creat a hierarchical block named A and complete the descend shematic of it. But when I make a copy of the hierarchical block A, I find that the reference designator of all the components in the descend schematic are the same between the copy and A. And when I change the componet reference in the descend schematic of either A or the copy, the other change at the same time. This makes the problem that A and its copy refers to the same circuit block but not two similiar one.
  I have read the help files of the software very clearly, but can't get the answer.
Wishing for your reply.Thank you.
