Capture and PCB Editor are not 'talking' to each other...

 I'm trying to do create groups from my schematic, so that I can hilight them in PCB editor, but it's not working... I'm trying this method;

Leave your schematic open, select "hilight" and "symbols" in Allegro, then go to Capture and select all your parts that you want grouped. It should highlight them making it easier to group.

 

-But it's not working.

     That did the trick. Thanks.

     

    I hate asking simple questions, but it seems it's the simple questions that don't get asked, hence, there's nothing to 'google' or search for in the forums.
