Ref and Value global hide

Post by chimimic »

Hi,

*****
new version (beta) 8.14 SP0
*****

When I want deliver a schematic without values or without references and values, I usually use [Template | Set Text Styles] dialog to disable [Visible] checkbox for Component ID or Component Value Style.

Actually, references or values of some components of schematic remain visible (are not hidden) after unchecked [Visible] parameter.

Component Ref visible and Component Value visible :

Hi Remy,

Please can you send your project to support@labcenter.com. The hiding and showing of References and values are working fine for us here. Thanks.

Regards,
Dave.

Hi Remy,

Thanks. The issue here is simple - Some of the parts have the reference set to be forced to be visible and not follow the Global Rules:

Then you set the Global Text Styles to not be visible, the ones that are set to not follow the Global rules will remain. The fix is to tick Follow Global check box.

This applies to COMPONENT ID and COMPONENT VALUE in the above form.

Regards,
Dave.

Thanks Dave for your answer.

But the problem is I never go to this tab and never modified this parameter for components...

Hi Remy,

If you open Proteus and pick a 42410-8312 in to a blank schematic, is the Follow Global check box ticked or unticked for 'Visible' ?

In this case, all is OK, Follow Global check box is ticked.

Hi Remy,

So by default it is correct, which means somehow it has been unchecked (probably by accident) on that project.

"probably by accident" on more than 10 components ?
I'm sure this didn't happened in this way and I suspect another reason...
