Thank you for sharing! I’ll have to investigate my options. I’ve long been an avid supporter of the Linux operating system and the free software paradigm supported by the GNU GPL. Consequently, I’ve taken to using KiCAD for schematic and PCB design. The software’s primary focus is on PCB development, and so the schematic is more of a means to an end. I do find that I have to fuss with the software sometimes to get a clean and well-styled schematic.
