Hi, I am having the most difficult time with something that should be intuitive.. anyway, here is my issue.
I saved an existing library of pin headers, deleted all but 2 styles I need for the project, 1x6 and 1x8.
they each have their own Device, Footprint, 3d package (not needed) and symbol.
I want to have a left and right 1x8 header with the pins labeled accordingly so I right click, duplicate
I make the changes to symbol to reflect the pin name changes.
When I open up the duplicated device, with name changed of course, i then click NEW from the drop down to select the ADD LOCAL PACKAGE, I can see all 3 options, 1x6 and both left and right 1x8 headers ..... I select the new DUPLICATED package which I renamed FE08-LEFT which has updated pin names, but when I select connect, it is the original pin names, from the original file!
From managed library main screen with the library selected, if I right click the FE08-LEFT under SYMBOL, FE08-LEFT does not offer the "USING DEVICE SETS" like the originals offer. I think thats the issue, how to fix?

solution: Dont duplicate the device, need to create new device
