Workflow for large changes in schema after starting pcb design?

Layout
1

Hi there,

what is the correct way to address this kind of workflow?

  1. Complete schema
  2. Layout PCB
  3. Make large changes in schema
  4. Annotate/import schema

If I reset all the annotations in the normal work in schema, mayhem typically happens in layout (which is expected). So, need to make sure if I had previously used reset that I change it to keep existing when annotating. I’ve shot myself in the foot a couple of times forgetting that. :slight_smile:

But I’m wondering if I’m doing the workflow wrong. Is this the right way to address this scenario (without having to toggle things back and forth) or should I be doing something else when going back and forth between schema and layout? Yes, I know, ideally that doesn’t happen but it did.

Input appreciated.

Thank you,
Christian
