exporting a modified symbol out

masamasa
masamasa 10 months ago

hello:

 

i place a symbol into my design.

 

on my design, i change the symbol property by unlocking the symbol and unfixing pins so that i can move pins on the symbol.

 

i move some pins on my design.

 

but when i export the symbol from my design, the symbol is not current but has the original pin location.

 

is there a way to retain the pin locations after moving pins on a symbol when exporting the symbol?

 

regards

masa

    thank u for ur reply, david.

     

    is there a way to export the copied data?

     

    maybe exporting as a sub-drawing? 

     

    regards

    I exported a symbol as a subdrawing from a design, however I could not get it to load correctly in an empty symbol drawing
