Dear All,

 

I would have an issue at updating library part footprint. When I decreased size of PTH pad, the changes is not updated PCB footprint in design. Do you have any hints how to fix it?

 

Thanks

I think you would get better results if you posted your question to the Fusion 360 Electronics Forum.

Hello,

I have same Issue...and find your post. While no right answer..I try this and worked:

 

In Schematic , in "Place Component" find the component you Change, Right click on it, and choose "Check for updates".

Hi!

I have the same issue. Tried your solution, but unfortunately, no success for me.

Does anyone have a solution?

I noticed that the board is "stuck" with an old version number of the component. The component exists in a newer version (auto-incremented upon saving by Eagle), it is shown correctly in the library and in all previews, but the board, just doesn't update to the newest version, hence keeps the old footprint. What should I do, except for removing the components completely and inserting them again?

Best,

Kilian

Hi @kilian_ochs,

 

I hope you're doing well. In the worst case you could try removing one component and putting it back into the design. If it is different then Fusion 360 will ask you if you want to update the design. Additionally the library can update versions but if the 3D package has not been changed then the design file will maintain the old versions of the 3D package. So always confirm what the version number should be for the 3D package.

 

Let me know if you continue to run into problems.

 

Best Regards,
