Explanation  – Some graphics of the project are from a library which doesn’t exist either in your project or in shared libraries coming with the version of PcVue you’re using .

To find the name of the missing object and/or library, switch to design mode and open the properties dialog. The library folder and symbol name are displayed in the Name property in the following format.

Format Type of library
<LibFolder>/<SymbolName>

Local library

 /<LibFolder>/<SymbolName>*  Shared library

 

 

 

 

*A backslash before the library folder name indicates that it is a shared library.

Solution – Libraries associated with the project used with the earlier version must be imported. Follow the procedure explained in KB 667 – Migrate a project using libraries to PcVue 11 or later.
