Equations Not Updading After File Rename

Equations Not Updading After File Rename

Equations Not Updading After File Rename

(OP)
I recently changed the names of files in a design (using swx explorer). When I opened the assembly the files were recognized but the equations were not updated with the new file names. Is there a way to make the equations recognize them?

Thanks.

Try hitting Ctrl Q a couple three times.

Unfortunately, only by re-creating them.

Suggest you submit an Enhancement Request.

That is one of the downfalls of using equations in SW.  Design tables can handle name changes better than using regular equations.

Ctrl-Q didnt work. But thanks anyway.

RE: Equations Not Updading After File Rename

I would submit this to your VAR as a bug....not an enhancement.
