Names of components in design block are different when I put them into a new schematic

Anonymous — Mon, 24 May 2021 16:31:16 GMT

Hi. I have recently made a new design block with the minimal configuration of an ATMEGA328P MCU.

My design includes both schematic and board files. I have designators in the design block such as R1, R2, C1, C2, and so on.

When I try to import the dbl to a new created schematic, all the component names are changed: if i had R1, R2 and R3, now R1 becomes R4, R2 becomes R5 and R3 becomes R6. This happens in all my components despite i don't have any other components in my schematic neither in my board.

The steps i'm following are these:

1. Open EAGLE, then File > New Project.

2. Right clic in New_Project > New > Schematic.

3. Generate board from schematic.

4. Go back to schematic and select the option "Add a Design Block".

5. I select my design block from the default folder.

6. I place both schematic and board designs into my project, then I accept the Paste from file window.

7. Now i have all the names of my components shifted as I described above.

I would appreciate your help with this issue.
