    Parametric connectors have issues after "reverse connector"

    Has anyone else had issues with the parametric connectors not working properly after they have been reversed using the "reverse connector" command?

    I've been working around this for a while, but decided it was finally time to sort this issue out.

    I have customized the connectors I use by modifying the blocks in the library. The connectors work perfectly until I reverse them. If I explode the connector after it has been reversed I notice all the attributes are mirrored. Could this be why once a connector has been reversed it no longer shows up in reports?

    Also I have noticed that the "Add connector pins" command is flaky. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I have read that customized connector blocks can sometimes cause issues, however I was extremely careful when creating these so that my connectors would work properly.

     

    I'm using ACE 2009.


    Any input would be appreciated.
