Too bad an overworked engineering student finds time to make tutorial videos for free but Cadsoft won't even though they make all the money. Thanks for the videos.

I follow the petition of John. Now I can create new devices but I only need to edit another devices to make small changes... And I don't understand how >NAME and >VALUE work. Could you please explain that? :-) Thanks in advance. Thanks for this tutorial.

Could you explain how to ADD a device to an already existing library (you cannot create a library for every device) and how to deal with >NAME and > Value? So for resistor R and an IC U? or IC? and ofcourse the right name.? Thanks. Hi Chris,

One symbol may be power/ground, another symbol the PCI signalling, another symbol an AC97 audio port, another symbol for USB ports, etc. This helps spread very large pin count chips across many pages to help make things more human-readable than having oen giant symbol on one very cluttered schematic page. All these symbols go back to one single layout footprint/package. Can this be done in Eagle as well? How so? I'm getting into some larger designs with high pincount chips, and woul dlike to use this technique to help keep my schematics organized and readable.
