Changing footprint of a component in schematic editor

[deepak_elango]

Can we change the footprint of a component in Schematic Editor without going to Component Library?

Footprint and some other options are disabled.

Hello @deepak_elango,

I hope you're doing well. So if you right click on a component you'll see a command called package that will allow you to switch to another footprint specified for the component without having to go into the library. 

If you want to use a completely different footprint or make a mod to the footprint you'll have to change the footprint in the library.

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

Best Regards,
