I'm running into a frustrating problem and I'm hoping someone has some
sort of workaround. I created a new component in a new library and
placed it into a schematic. I made some changes to the component, but
I cannot get those changes to update in the schematic. I save the
component both in the new library on disk and in the loaded library in
memory, but neither updates the component on the schematic. I tried
deleting the component and placing it again, but it still shows up as
the old component. The library browser shows the updated component,
but when I place it into the schematic, it shows up as the old
component. Is there any way to force Eeschema to reload the
components from the libraries like you can reload the modules in
PCBNew? I've tried exporting the modified component and importing it
into a library with a different name, no luck. Do I need to redraw
the component from scratch and save it with a new name or is there
some easy trick I'm missing? I just don't understand the persistence,
where is that information being stored and why can't I update it? I'm
using 20090216-final on linux.
