I use the save button with black and red then the other save button that looks like a disc.
This will update the schematic symbol when I have both open the editor and schematic. The netlist and checks and reanotate stuff I do not know about I re do them again. I try to get done with the sch first then whenever I modify I reanotate and redo the netlist clear the footprint layout or allow it to delete and replace.... then move the new components in where they need to go.. let it show warnings and delete & replace as nessisary. I also use freeroute autorouter heavly. --- In [email protected], STEVEN HOLDER <s.holder...@...> wrote: > > Doesn't an ERC check enforce this ? maybe wrong but thought it did. > Â > Regards > > > --- On Wed, 10/2/10, keeneybrian <briankee...@...> wrote: > > > From: keeneybrian <briankee...@...> > Subject: [kicad-users] How to force update of schematic file when changing > part in library? > To: [email protected] > Date: Wednesday, 10 February, 2010, 20:36 > > > Â > > > > When I make a change to a part in a library that's already been placed in the > schematic, I can't seem to get the part properties to be updated in the > schematic (and more importantly the netlist), even when I clear the cache.
