I don't use DXP/AD but you are trying the wrong update. Sounds as
though you are expecting the land pattern to be updated with an
update/synchronization from schematic. It won't update because there are no
changes at that level, the land pattern name is still the same (no changes).
You want to update the land pattern from the PCB library. Sorry can't
tell you where precisely it resides in AD/DXP but you are looking for an update
land pattern type command from within the library editor. I am pretty sure
there may also be an update 'all' land patterns command from within the PCB
editor.

Subject: [PEDA] PCB update from PCB Libraries
Hello,
I am using Protel2004. After I change the footprint of a component in the PCB
Library, the actual footprint in the PCB board cannot be updated. The operation
<Design -> Input Change From test.PRJPCB> says: No differences detected between
Schematic Document [test.SCHDOC] and PCB Document [test.PCBDOC].
I know in Altium Designer 6.0 this thing can be done with right click on a
PCB component and choose <Component Actions -> Update Current Components From
PCB Libraries>.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks
