Bug Description

Once I change shape (connection type) of a hierarchical pin in a hierarchical sheet, I need the shapes (connection types) to be updated in the parent sheet. The only way to do this is to remove and re-import each and every pin. There should be an option to update pins shape (connection type) in one click.
