Dwight,
what I had was a PCB with the full netlist and components within it.
I placed a segment of the components in one area, there is another area
which is identical with different component designators so I copied and
placed the original placed components. Then I renumbered the copied
components to the correct designators for that segment of circuitry, then I
deleted the original (unplaced yet) components which were duplicated in the
copied circuit. There after I have never been able to get anything to
synchronize.
Yes in hindsight I probably should have tried updating schematic
after deleting the original (unplaced)components but I am not convinced that
would have any positive effect. I believe that the synchronizer would have
still been hooped at that point in time, the conditions would have been no
different at that point in time then it is now.
