I just installed KiCad, mainly for schematic capture for discrete and vacuum-tube circuits.
I started by generating new symbols for my intended vacuum tubes. I started by creating a new library (since I don't have permission to save to the supplied directory), opening a similar part, and did "copy as" to a new part name (e.g., 6AK5). I then made required changes to the symbol (mainly pin numbers). However, the description (second item on the menu, after "6AK5", such as "pentode" or "dual triode" remained on the file. I need to change some of them (especially ones that specified power level, and I generated a dual-diode from a dual-triode part). I can't find a way to edit that field, pending arrival of a textbook. Any information?
