Symbols are not automatically annotated when placing design block as group
Description
When auto-annotation is enabled and the "Keep Annotations" design block option is disabled, adding a design block to the schematic as a group adds unannotated symbols (R?) instead of the annotated symbols you should get based on the auto-annotation setting. Placing the symbols ungrouped annotates as expected.
Steps to reproduce
- Open demo project, which includes a design block library: v10-designblocks.zip
- Observe auto-annotation is enabled and "Keep Annotations" is disabled in design block panel
- enable "Place as group" design block setting
- Select "divider" block in design block panel. See in preview that resistors are annotated R3 and R4, which we expect to be reannotated on placement based on settings in step 2
- place "divider" block in the schematic and see that the resistors are unannotated (
R?)
