Panel Layout with assembly code

I have to insert 2 identical circuit Breakers in my panel.

One without additional contact, the second one (same) with additional contact.

Is this possible using the notion of assembly code, or what is the best way to manage this.

Thanks in advance

Well, you'll need a footprint for the regular breaker, and another for the one with the aux contact. Each one would have a different catalog entry and a different part number. The regular breaker would be just the part number, the other one would be the part number with an attached assemblycode. This is how the software typically handles things like this with the out-of-the-box symbols and footprints.

Generally speaking, it's cumbersome and annoying to try and manage things like aux contacts and other subassembly items as independent entries.
