I am using the iPDK of X-FAB in the WinPC version. The circuit diagram data created by Virtuoso is imported into the schematic editor and edited. When imported, the symbol and the pin name and direction of the circuit diagram will be changed. Please let me know if there is a workaround for this phenomenon. Please refer to the attached material. Thank You Regards K.Kanata

Can you supplier an example OpenAccess database and send to to sales@layouteditor.com. We will then debug the issue and fix it. There is no real standard to store a schematic to a OpenAccess database. Any tool and sometimes even a different version of a tool does it a little bit different. In your case the port name seems to be stored in another way as the examples we have so far. With an example OpenAccess database we can check how exactly it is stored and adjust the import accordingly.

The issue is fixed with release 20211016 download with this link: https://layouteditor.com/download?release=latest The issue was caused by not perfectly placed port symbols and the assignment of the data failed. With the mentioned update the LayoutEditor will be able to find inexact placed data and assign it correctly. However, I still do not understand why your tool does not place the port symbols exactly at the location where the wire ends. In case you or someone else has any info on this, please let me know. Now in doubt, a little wire will be added to connect the wire end to the port symbol.
