Hi,
I have looked into this matter a little bit.
This feature is not going to be easily solved on the ps-HID level, it goes deeper than that.
Changes will have to be made in draw.c in PrintAssembly () and possibly a macro for this feature needs to be added in macro.h.
A quick-and-dirty workaround is to change into "view values" in pcb with "View/Displayed Element Name/Values" (WYSIWYG = What You See Is What You Get).
Then export to ps in multi file mode, rename your_assembly.ps to your_assembly_ with_values. ps.
Go back to viewing "Reference Designators" generate a your_assembly.ps and rename to your_assembly_ with_refdesses. ps.
And then, last thing to do, glue all the ps-files into one multi-file with some scripting.
And yes I know, this is cumbersome.
When given time, I will further investigate for a solution.
Just my EUR 0.02 for now.
Kind regards,
Bert Timmerman.
