Title: Removing 'Technologies' from the list.....
Post by: rx8pilot on August 05, 2017, 07:35:18 am
I am (finally) adding our internal part numbers to my libraries to better coordinate assembly, BOMs, etc.

I did some experiments with TECHNOLOGIES and ATTRIBUTES until I sorted out a scheme that I was happy with. It did not take long to realize that I needed to change the way I was naming things but I cannot figure out how to change or delete a 'TECHNOLOGY' after it is made.

Anyone know if this is possible? There are some in the list that I just want to delete and the ones with check marks I want to change the name.

The first thought that came to my mind was to open up the actual xml file that contains the part and find the xml tags and delete them manually. Back up the file first just in case you break it.

In the device editor, command line TECHNOLOGY -100N should remove the 100N entry from the list of technologies. For more info see this link (http://web.mit.edu/xavid/arch/i386_rhel4/help/92.htm) or the EAGLE Help file (from where I believe the page in the link comes from).
