[PCB_FORUM] Re: Modified parts in Allegro

You can a library report, that will tell you where the parts came from, if they 
show a path, other than your designated lib path, such as another board file, 
or the working directory the board file is in. Then that would alert you why 
did they do that, it might be modified part.

But I don’t know of any way to tell for sure, and or what was changed, unless 
the person before you was nice enough to leave a doc, notes file.

Can you be any more specific? How, where you open it, what menu button, etc… is 
it a report you run?
