Bug Description
I have a custom component in my schematic, if I modify the component with library editor and re-save the library, all the changes are not getting updated to the schematic where the component is used. More specifically the value and reference field do not get updated. The pin changes do get updated but if I move the value or reference fields they do not get updated. Closing and opening eeschema does not help, the only thing that seems to help is deleting the component from the schematic, removing the library, and re-adding the library and component.
To reproduce this create a new component with the library editor, add it to a schematic, edit the component and move the value or the reference field, save library. Result is that in the schematic the value and reference field stay in the same place as before.
I'm using KiCad 2012-03-24 BZR 3477 on Ubuntu 11.10, 4GB memory, geforce (G92) 8800GTS, g++ version 4.6.1-9ubuntu3, wxwidgets version 2.8.11.0-0ubuntu10.
A "Reset to Library Defaults" in the Edit Component Window updates the reference and value of the component in EESchema.
Application: Eeschema 16-27)- stable compiler with C++ ABI 1002,GCC 4.7.0,wx containers, compatible with 2.6)
