Annotation not Updating PCB and Cross Probe mode not exiting

pcat

Hi I have some issues with a design consisting of 7 sheets that causes some components in the PCB file not to have nets attached I think because of Annotation not forwarding correctly.

This appears to be on Capacitors, they appear on the PCB file but with no nets and some based on component identifier e.g. C29 are connected to the incorrect Net.

These are the same components (Library part and some okay some not) and from the Altium Vault, all my own Libraries appear fine as with other parts.

The project compiles with not errors.

 

To try and identify the issue I am using the cross probe feature from the schematic and PCB, when using it on PCB file it finds the corresponding symbol in the schematic sheets

and I can exit from it.

But when using Cross probe from Schematic it finds the component on the PCB file and Grays out the rest, but I cannot find a way of exiting this mode to get my PCB back, I can Cross probe

again but I have to close the PCB file and reopen.

I'm using two monitors not split screen.

Any suggestions on either please ?

 

I have been using for Two weeks now and all in all very nice software.

 

Regards

  • Okay found the answer for the cross probe from schematic to PCB.

    Escape from Cross probe but you have to also click the schematic symbol again and the PCB is back.

    So I have tried the reverse on the PCB to Schematic as that worked with just an Esc however this has stopped working.

    It appears once a cross probe to the PCB has been performed the PCB to Schem Cross probe stops working.?

    Tried on split screen as well as dual screen.
