Regarding Component placement after changing Library directory
PMICnewbie , 02-28-2024, 12:20 AM
Hello
So I had my ORCAD symbols and allegro footprints in another folder and after going through the tutorials realized that I need to add those files in my project folder/directory
Now in between I realized that my Schematics are picking .OLB files from the old directory (despite moving the path within the project folder)
Is there a way to change the path for the symbols to use the new directory path:
Also if I add symbols the changed library path, I was thinking that the wiring and routing in this schematic should remain intact and I can add new symbols to it but unfortunately it starts to push away if I try to connect symbol into the old wiring (Robert do you recall anything like this happening?)
Basically I am having issues in updating

I don't know how to fix this (I don't have orcad installed to check it 😦 ). Maybe a simple and quick way around could be to leave the libraries in the old path and include that path in your project? Or maybe someone else can help?
