Missing a resistor in an array

johnwYMVVZ — Sun, 28 Apr 2019 13:12:38 GMT

I have a 4-position resistor array where the first 3 positions are filled, but the last one doesn't show up anywhere. How do I get that last one to show up in the schematic editor so I can fill it? When I add the array as a part, it adds the resistors one at a time, so I've tried adding a single resistor as a new part and renaming it to be part of that old array, but get the "name exists" error.

Probably just need to delete and create a new array, but it would be nice if there were a way to deal with this situation.

Hello,

You need to use the INVOKE command using the name of the existing part. So for example, if the resistor pack you have use 3 and have 1 spare is RN1 then you would use:

INVOKE RN1

From the EAGLE command line and it'll pop up a window listing the gates in the part allowing you to choose and place the unused gate.
