Should we just ignore the drc2 error?
I'm afraid I don't understand your question.

Well, it's about using a page = connector to have a multi page flat = schematic.

My = usual way is to use netname=3D attributes attached to net segments I = intend to connect globally. For clarity, I often graphically connect = such things to a bus labelled =E2=80=9CPower=E2=80=9D or =E2=80=9CClocks=E2= =80=9D or something.

I've never really = found a way that does not
generate a drc error. Is = there a way? For me, it's moot now -- worked around it.

What I usually do, (and also = did this time), is to use the gschem hierarchic-flat netlist that = inserts subcircuit
refdes's into the flat netlist to give = you net nodes such as S1/R33-2. With that style, gnetlist follows = the source=3D attributes to subcircuit schematics and my makefile works = easily to process drc's netlists for any that are updated.

Multi page flat schematics would be some = difficult makefile writing also, so dropping the "page connector to have = a multi page flat schematic" request/question.
