DC Annotation works sometimes and does not other times

In ADEXL, when back annotating to a schematic the node voltages don't always show up. I thought going through the list of libraries in Views->Annotations->Setup and setting them correctly seemed to help, but am not sure now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much!

    Does the symbol have cdsTerm() labels for those pins?

    Next I'd check whether all the nodes are being saved - are they in the dcOp database in the results browser? If not, check what whether you've turned off saving of the nodes. If they are, contact customer support because I can't think why this might be failing and I think we'd need to see it.

    Ok, this is embarrassing to admit. But the nodes were not all saved. Once they are if the nodes are not visible going through View->Annotations->Setup seems to work.

    Sorry for that digression.
