package update pads error

autodeskguest

I have a board created in ver 416 lite on which I have a voltage regulator.

In my regulator library I created a  TO-92 package with long pads, .052"

diameter.

 

The regulator has several other TO-92 variants using round pins, also

SOT-23.

 

I originally placed the SOT-23 package variant. When I attempted to Change

Package to the TO-92 long-pad variant the package that resulted was a TO-92

package with long pads, but the pads diameter is .075" instead of .052".

 

I can go into my source library and make a "marker" change to the errant

variant package, then update the board and see the marker, but the pads

remain .075".

 

This is not a killer defect because I do not have to use the bad variant,

but what is going on?

 

This bowls me over. Any help, please?

  • Thanks, Richard. I've seen that before but don't deal with real issues very

    often. Then I forget.
