Help with changed/updated package names '@'

autodeskguest

My first couple of schematics/boards in Eagle obviously weren't making

the most efficient use of the Libraries.

 

I have a Schematic/Board that used a pad from the wirepad.lbr, at some

point the Info command in my Schematic/Board starts showing the

package as 'packagename@1'. Of course - there's no package by this

name in the Library - so I can't edit it.

 

The Change Package command seems to only gives me the option to change

it to itself - i.e. the appended 'packagename@1'.

 

Yes, I admit, I might have changed the original in the library...

 

..but does that mean that I can no longer edit a Device used in my

Project?

 

I know there's been alot of talk on here about changing/replacing

packages - for now I just need to know if there's a way of

replacing/updating/modifying these Pads -(ideally without losing the

Smashed/custom values for Name and Value and without having to do it

all manually).

 

Thanks all.

    What about exporting a library from the schematic/board, the make the

    changes in the new library ?  You will have to remove the device from

    the schematic and re-enter it from the new library though.

    ULP: exp-project-libr is what you need.
