So I have a circuit breaker I've inserted into my schematic. I want edit an attribute to assign it a name that will appear on the actual schematic AND another attribute that will show up as the current rating for the breaker.
So I RMB on the symbol in my schematic and go to "edit attributes" and I click on the field under "Value" and it lets me enter in the information I want. Then I click OK and go back to my schematic...and sometimes, but not always, the information I entered is not displayed. So if I go back to edit attributes again, the information I entered is no longer shown in those fields under "Value".
Is this a bug? It seems like I should be able to edit the attributes and have the information I entered not randomly disappear (and sometimes, but not always, not even appear on the schematic) after I exit the dialogue...
Also, I wouldn't reccomend putting the Ref_Des and Com_tx tags on your symbols. One person at my company wanted to see them there while designing, so I set them up on the Do Not Print layer.
Ref_TZ is the part description. This would be something like Circuit Breaker. Very useful to see when you are using IEC designators.
COM_TZ is the component description, which is a functional description of the component. This would be something like Drive 1 Protection. Absolutely my favorite attribute to show. This is the same description that will show up in the component tree like this:
