I can confirm that ;) the problem is that mixing up GUI and logical data is 
bad. Another thing I mentioned while playing around with sub-circuits is, that 
they aren't consistent. The sub-circuits aren't stored within circuit files. 
(Or did I got something wrong?) This should mess everything up, when loading 
an "old" circuit file containing a sub-circuit, that is not in the users 
KTechLab directory. This will probably not happen this often on a single-user 
system, but as more people share their circuit files, this will become a real 
problem. Much rework is needed here, if I got everything right.

bye then

PS: I'm looking for a solution to work-around this issue, because this is 
quite annoying, even if you don't mess up everything by changing your local 
sub-circuits.
