Batch Update Library Parts

$

Hi,

 

I had an issue with VeSys harness that I was able to solve using the "Batch Update Library Parts" action which can be accessed by selecting “Actions>Update>Batch Update Library Parts" from the top toolbar. I now have a few questions about this action.

 

My issue was that at one point, I had made a change to the acceptable wire size for a couple of terminals in the component library, but I recently realized that this change is not being reflected in some of my designs. For these designs, when I run the "Select Cavity Components" process, it doesn't match the current information that is in the component library. The terminals are being selected as if I had not made the changes to the component library. I tried selecting "File > Refresh > Refresh All" from the top toolbar, but VeSys was still selecting the wrong terminals. I then tried the “Batch Update Library Parts” action and it fixed the issue that I have.

I should mention that I am working on VeSys harness designs with 2 different databases, and I regularly transfer designs between the two databases. I transfer library component information between the two databases as well, and I was suspecting that this might be the cause of my issue.

 

I was wondering what does the “Batch Update Library Parts” action do exactly and how is it different from the “Refresh All” process?

Should I be performing this action every time I make a change to the library, or whenever I transfer information between databases?

Should I be performing this action for every harness  design or does doing it once apply the changes everywhere?

 

Thank you
