Hi All,

Suppose in a schematic I named a wire "A" and then did the layout, later on, i changed the name of the particular net to say "B".Now when i do connectivity- update-Components & Nets-Update Nets and Instance Name mismatch only in Layout XL.I get the following symbols in magenta color. What do these represent and how can I remove them from my layout?

    You can try to update the binding with Connectivity->Update->Binding in the Layout XL menu. Check the option 'Preserve Existing Bindings' and then update. You may also have to update the pin properties on connected blocks in the navigator menu. Those magenta symbols are actually markers so you can also just remove them by deleting markers with Verify->Markers->Delete All.
