Losing text with vars after libs update

silvio3105 — Mon, 09 May 2022 05:31:56 GMT

Hi,

After updateing libs in design, Fusion removes few texts with variables.

Those vars are: MODULE_PN, MODULE_NAME, PCB_PN, PCB_NAME. They are global variables/attributes.

After placing same exact page cover(on same sheet), they show up within new page cover.

Also, it seems that Fusion removes texts only with global atrributes only on sheet that is open during libs update. Maybe Fusion removed those text vars because page cover "component" was updated, not sure.

I experienced exactly the same issue.

I hope they will fix those little bugs that annoy. It's paid software, not free....

Hi @silvio3105 ,

I hope you're doing well. Could you provide the cover page component for review and testing? Those attributes should preserve the text on the schematic. One thing you could try, if you do the update and the text disappear try zooming out and in, does the text come back?

Let me know.

Best Regards,

.flbr file is not supported.

I'm not sure but I think I've tried that with zoom-in-out. Did not help.

Hi @silvio3105,

I think this has been addressed for the July release, if memory serves.

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

Best Regards,

Not fixed.
After opening recovery file(guess why recovery file...) (custom) variables from cover page(always first page) are missing.
