Maybe you are correct Dennis.
I cannot recall the precise circumstances but I am sure that this
problem I had years ago was simply related to naming of the footprints. As I
said, I changed my conventions and it hasn't appeared since and I have
forgotten the precise details. I know that I don't use "-", "_" or spaces in my
footprint names and it hasn't occurred since.
I know that the problem was that it appeared to have made the changes
but in actual fact it hadn't, while all checks (netlist load, etc.) showed it
was fine and the changes were made.

Subject: Re: [PEDA] Wrong geometry, right footprint name!
are we speaking about 99SE or DXP ?
i can't tell
re 99SE
we don't have problems with - or _ in footprint names
BUT!
spaces are bad
they prevent the UPDATE footprint from lib from working at all
is this fixed or changed in DXP ?
