Ah, that is where I am wrong... I don't use Part Developer(?) and am still
using 15.7 so haven't
had the pleasure(pain?) of V16 for library symbols.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Shirlies ^2,
I have seen this behavior before. Component replace is broken.
The software is doing a sneaky check to see if the replace part is necessary,
its comparing the library part with that that is in the schematic. And as
Shirley Oregon says, this is 'dumb' text, and it cant detect a difference. To
prove this, do component ADD, and drop the lib part next to your schematic
part, and you will always get whats in the library, you will see the change you
made.
We are now using the metadata options, and baselining our parts on save. This
fixes this issue cold. The rev number changes, and the Component Revision
Manager WILL see the change, and replace the part.
Im on 16.2 also.
Randy Dawson

Are you sure you descended into the library symbol, moved the text (this is
only dumb text and not a property), saved
and ascended back out. That will change the part for every instance on the
schematic but again as someone said closing
the schematic and opening it again may have to be done.
I am not sure that you can change a individual instance of a part on a
schematic without changing the library symbol itself.
But I have been known to not know everything.

Sorry about that. When all else fails, remove the part, do a design sync and
then add the new part in. If this does not work, you are in trouble. We are
running on 16.2.
Have a nice day!

That didn't seem to help. I just wanted to move the pin text around some.
Here is the symbol on the schematic: Then below is what I really want it to
look like.

Here is the updated one I can see in "Replace Component"

Do a component - modify and reset the filters.

Hello Everyone,
I updated a schematic symbol's text and I can't seem to get the
"new" text to show up on my schematic. I deleted the old part and put down a
new one but it still has the old text associated with it. Can someone tell me
the trick to get this new data to show up? (Design entry HDL 16.2)- Thanks! -DC
