Sometimes (probably when the element isn’t a line or rectangle) paths as terminals do not work, so the message perhaps should be changed to indicate that, although it won’t hurt to make the terminalIds not be a path, so perhaps we should change the part file format document to specify terminalIds can’t be a path (because some types of path won’t work)? edit: The same thing is true of paths as through hole pads in pcb. A path that is a circle … There are a couple of items (terminalIds and through hole pads not being paths) which are not always incorrect, but will sometimes not work in difficult to detect cases. I think the appropriate action here is to specify in the part file format (or other tbd documentation!) that terminalIds and through hole pads need to be a rectangle and a circle respectively.
