Breaking up large pin count connectors

Frozen001

Hello,

I am looking for a better way yo place large pin count connectors in capture.  Presently I have always make a multi package part with the pins grouped in some way.  This works OK, but sometimes the schematics would be more readable if I could arrange the pins differently, and I would prefer to not have to recreate new parts for each different arrangement.  Is there a way to create a parts where each pin is a separate item that can me placed and moved as a single unit, and I can then just arrange the any way I wanted to? Even be able to have them in different locations on the sheet?

    Wow, totally missed your reply. So if I do this, then can I then easily assign the proper footprint to the connector when I get to the PCB?
