Layout XL pointing to wrong schematic Design

Hi all:

    I am working on the layout of my chip right now, and I am coming across something peculiar...In the library manager I copied my design cell to a new cell with a different revision. In the old cell, I have done partial layout of the cell in Layout XL. In the new cell, I fire up the layout of the chip, and open with Layout XL, and when I try to cross probe, it is pointing to the schematic of the older cell, rather than the newer cell. How can I correct this error? Thanks so much for your help!

     Hi,

    after opening the Layout in XL mode, do the following so that you cann't the problem again.

    Connectivity(Menu in Layout View) ---> Update ---> Connectivity Reference....

    it will gives a popup there fill the newer Schematic library name, cell name, view name

    then apply this will updates your copied layout with newer schematic

     

    Thanks & Regards
