There is a refresh button next to the "Clear" button of the filter entry. > Also, after making an edit to the symbol, the edits don't appear until > after restarting gschem. Presumably, the same issue. Refresh the symbol library. Copies of the symbol within the schematic page won't be updated until you save and reload the page. (I'd suggest "File->Save" and then "Page->Revert" as a quick way to do this for a large number of components). There is "Edit->Update Component" (shortcut "ep"), however I'm not sure if this works with non-embedded symbols. Its main use is to update an embedded symbol to match a newer version on disk. > I am using gschem 1.4.0 20080127 Great! Nice to see people taking advantage of the latest code.
