Update Component Version

The Update Component Version dialog box enables you to update a component of an instance with another version. You can restore or update your component without creating a new instance or losing your connections.

To update a component version in your design:

1. 1.Select the component in the Design Hierarchy or from the SmartDesign canvas, right click and choose Update Component Version. The Update Component Version dialog box appears, (as shown in the following figure).

2. 2.In the Change to version drop-down list, select the version you want to update it with and click OK. On clicking OK, the core downloads automatically to the vault and the component in the SmartDesign canvas updates with the version selected as it appears in the tool-tip in the figure above.

   If the vault is read-only, selecting remote core renders the OK button inactive and displays the following tool-tip message as shown in the figure below.
