Tools/Update Schematics from PCB

Can someone explain what “Tools/Update Schematics from PCB” is for and how to use it?

In v6 it’s possible to change footprint values and reference designators on the board and push back the changes to the schematic.

Thanks, I tested this but maybe I did it wrong?

That’s a serious bug, can you repeat it and report it to the issue database?

before reporting: download the latest version and try again. I think this bug (invoke the library-browser–> crash) was reported already multiple times and is fixed in the meantime (at least with my windows-version).

After updating today, from previous version from 22/11, it now works well. The “bug” has been fixed. Great.
