Solving inconsistencies

If inconsistencies were detected during the block comparison in LibraryManagement (status Obsolete, Invalid or Removed), the next step is to investigate and resolve them. To resolve the inconsistencies, you must decide which project is obsolete and make the changes in the corresponding editor.

  2. The component is opened in the UserClient.
  3. Edit the standard library by selecting Open with editor.
