When opening an existing KiCAD6 library symbol en KiCAD7, any "MEG" in the SPICE parameters is converted to "M" (which is interpreted as "m" in SPICE).
"MEG" in the folowing library snippet gets converted to "M" in KiCAD 7.0 "Sim.Params", which is fatal to SPICE simulation success: Description
(property "Spice_Model" "1.00MEG" (id 16) (at 0 -30.48 0)
(effects (font (size 1.27 1.27)) hide)
Steps to reproduce
- View the properties of an existing KiCAD6 Symbol in the Symbol Editoror Schematic Editor.
- Observe that the newly added "Sim.Params" has converted any "MEG" in "Spice_Model" to "M".
