Component names


TomGorp

Hello,

when making names for certain sub-components in the schematic I noticed that I cannot use a lot of symbols even though the pop-up screen says that I can:

"Invalid component name.

Names can only contain letters, digits, and any of -_$&+=!@#~\/"

so when I enter "K1-1", it should be fine right?

Also, the help mentiones certain of the above characters to be illegal for component/net names. Are all symbols unusable? despite the pop-up that I can? if not, which character could I use to specify sub-components?
