For these types of string changes I usually just do a query-replace or
search-replace
function in EMACS. The macro record/playback functions can also be useful
if you
first need to find a component name (e.g. "R1:U1") and then replace the
footprint attribute.

I always copy all the files to a backup directory prior to editing.

Hi.<br>
<br>
I have a schematic that is made of a custom symbol and subschematic to<br>
avoid repeating the same block all over again. Everything works fine<br>
so far. It turns out that I need the footprint of one of the two<br>
resistors in that subschematic to be &quot;RADIAL_CAN 200&quot; instead of<=
br>
&quot;R025&quot; =C2=B9.<br>
<br>
So far the only things I managed to do are<br>
<br>
* either I update my PCB and edit the PCB file in an editor to change<br>
=C2=A0 the definition of the resistor element (which gets added everytime I=
<br>
=C2=A0 update the PCB, of course)<br>
<br>
* or I manually add the radial element, delete the old one and edit<br>
=C2=A0 names and nets using the dialogue boxes.<br>
<br>
Either way is a bit tedious in the long run.<br>
<br>
The sub schematics components in question are named &quot;R1:U1&quot; (with=
 the<br>
radial footprint) and &quot;R1:U2&quot; (with the &quot;R025&quot; footprin=
t). Can I make<br>
that change permanent and how?<br>
<br>
FTR I&#39;m also using `gsch2pcb` and a project file in which I store<br>
parameters and other command line options to `pcb`.<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance for any hint or suggestion.<br>
<br>
=C2=B9 I have added a footprint attribute to every component in the<br>
sub-schematic in question.<br>
<br>
C.F.<br>
