Replicating schematic sheets - Refdes update but signals stay linked between pages

I am trying to copy 1 sheet into several sheets in fusion 360 electronics. The design is port based so the components are the same on each sheet, save for the ref des and signal names. The Ref Des on the parts change from sheet to sheet, but when I edit net names, the changes happen on all sheets. Please advise me on what I'm doing wrong? The chat support told me I need to exit fusion and reset the data plane and it would re-sync / rebuild a database on next startup  - I'm thinking a flag is stuck somewhere Thanks for anything you can help

Hello @harrison_raynerG2JSL,

 

I hope you're doing well. IF you need to preserve the layout then you need save the portions to be copied as their own electronics design. You can then insert multiple copies of it into a larger design, using the workflow described in this thread.

If you just need to copy and paste within the schematic, then you can do that, the key to allowing the nets to rename is to make sure they don't have labels. Any nets with labels will not be renamed.

 

Let me know if you continue to run into problems.

 

Best Regards,
