Hmm, all busrippers and the titleblock have their graphical=1 attribute
properly set, and yet there's obviously some symbol that is causing
trouble -- if I delete a certain part of the schematic containing a few
dozen symbols, the message doesn't come up any more. 

I'll make a test copy of my work and remove symbols bit by bit, and see
which one is causing this behaviour. If it's nothing obvious (in
hindsight), I'll report back.

Thanks so far for the hints -- I hate not knowing what's going on :-)


Best regards,

Richard Rasker
