Where is the yellow F/B annotation warning?

kschepens — Mon, 09 Mar 2020 15:12:37 GMT

In Eagle (and in earlier versions of Fusion 360 Electronics), there was a big yellow warning when F/B annotations where severed. I often get the warning that board and schematics are not consistent but the big yellow (and very useful!) warning doesn't appear anymore.

This is a bug and will be fixed here shortly. When you open your Sch/Brd from Electronics Design (by opening the Electronics Design) the warning will appear whenever one of the the two documents is closed (Sch or Brd). If you open the documents *outside* of the Electronics Design or if you close one, then reopen it, the warning is not happening. This latter item is the bug but we already identified the issue and are working to fix it! Thank you for reporting it.

Fusion errors have the worst description of what's actually wrong don't they?

Happy New Year and hope you all doing well.

Today Fusion 360 has released a new version V.2.0.9636 and we are very happy to share with you that the banner is improved in this new version.

Now the banner will show proper message and guide user to correct it by clicking that hyperlink in different scenarios.

1) If only the saved schematic file or board file is opened, but no corresponded linked Electronics design is opened, then click the hyperlink in the banner will open the linked Electronics design for you if there is.

2) If schematic file and board file linked in the Electronics design have inconsistent issue, then click the hyperlink will open the ERC dialog for you. You could check out the errors to help you correcting manually.

3) If the linked Electronics design and board file is opened, but linked schematic file is linked, click the hyperlink will open the linked schematic file for you.

4) Similar to scenario #3, If the linked Electronics design and schematic file is opened, but linked board file is linked, click the hyperlink will open the linked board file for you.

Hope it helps and much appreciated for all your feedback.
