Since the footprints (feetprint?) specified in the library editor are not the only "legal" footprints for that schematic part, I would not expect assigned footprints on existing parts to be changed when you change the library part (other than changing the footprints listed in the drop-down box). You can quickly change all occurences (or selected occurences) of a footprint to any other footprint using Global Edit - you don't have to change each part individually. -- Peter Bennett TRIUMF 4004 Wesbrook Mall, Vancouver, BC, Canada GPS and NMEA info and programs: http://vancouver-webpages.com/peter/index.html * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
