Optionally Disable Reference Designator Merging
Tags for datum entities like coordinate systems, axes, and other entities can now have their display controlled separate from the datum entities.
User Interface Location: File > Options. Next to Showing, select Defaults. In Schematic Viewer > Bill Of Materials, select the check box Enable separated reference designators for fractured components in BOM.
What is the benefit of this enhancement?
By default, fractured reference designators, such as RefDes that are used on multiple sheets but refer to a single component, are merged. This options allows users to use a naming convention for grouping components, such as LED1-01, LED1–02 and LED1–03, without merging the reference designators.
