change package symbol

rlenser

I am new to OrCAD PCB Designer after using Layout for about 10 years.  I have finished my first PCB, but in the design review a resistor changed from 1W to 5W.  I have the new package symbol, but I can't figure out how to update the PCB with it.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    How did you assign it in the first place?  And, are you using the netlister?

    Hint: change the pcb_footprint property in OrCAD (schematic) and re-netlist the board.  The package will automatically update in OrCAD PCB.
