This task explains how to
query/update an image of a component
placed in another document, or query/update a line route image linked
to on/off-sheet connectors. |
|
When you place a component image
in one or more schematic diagrams and modify the master as explained in
Placing Images in Multiple Diagrams, you can
update the image with changes made to the master. You cannot make any
changes to the image attributes. However, changes to the master can be
displayed in the image.
You can query/update the image when any of the following types of
changes are made to the master:
- Renaming using the Rename dialog box.
- Modifying certain attributes/properties using the Properties
dialog box.
- Replacing a component using the Replace Component
command, or replacing a cable with the Replace Cable
Reference command.

To query/update an image, open the
document containing the image.
Click the Query/Update Images
button . The
Query/Update Images dialog box displays.
Select the image that you are querying from those listed in the
Name column. |

If the name of the master is
changed, the Update Status column indicates Master Object
Not Found. Click Update Selection and the Possible
Masters dialog box displays.
Select the master name that was renamed from the list and click OK.
The Query/Update Images dialog box redisplays and the
Update Status column indicates Up to Date. Click
Close and the image is renamed with the name of the master. |

When you select a line route image
linked to on/off-sheet connectors from the Name column, the
line image in your document is highlighted. |

If the change to the master is
made through:
- the Properties dialog box (certain properties of the
master were modified), the Update Status column in the
Updated Images dialog box indicates Out of Date.
- the Replace Component command (the master
component was replaced) or the Replace Cable Reference
command (the master cable was replaced), the Update Status
column in the Query/Update Images dialog box indicates
Incompatible Master Object.
Select the image to be updated from those listed in the Name
column.
Click Update Selection. The Update Status column
indicates Up to Date. Click Close and the image is
updated with the changes made to the master. |
