Schematic/PCB sync deactivated. How to fix this issue?

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

I am a new user to Fusion 360 Electronics and I have created a schematic that is out of sync with my PCB file. After reading the forum I now realize that I should open the Design document first and always have the Schematic and PCB file open at the same time. I must have edited the schematic while the PCB file was closed and hence they are out of sync.  I have never seen this requirement in an ECAD package before. 

I have tried syncing both the schematic and PCB but clicking on "Run ERC to find differences and resolve them". Then a warning comes up  saying "Board and Schematic are not consistent! No forward-/backannotation will be performed! "

I'm not sure how I can now fix this. What is the easiest way to get around this issue so that I can get my PCB synced back up with my schematic?   Do I have to delete everything and start from scratch but it seems I cannot even delete my PCB file so I could just generate a new PCB fie.

Hi @Anonymous 

I hope you are doing well!

Do you try the Syncbronzie to sync 2d PCB file with the Schematic file?

You can click the Synchronzie in the ERC dialog.

You can get more information of Synchronize by referring to https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360-electronics/fusion-360-march-2021-update/m-p/10254484#M5104
