When updating the dimensions of a part, several other settings return to their defaults.

These include:
  1. All Legend Settings
  2. All Assembly Settings
  3. All Courtyard Settings
  4. All Component Settings
  5. Any custom "Drawn Symbols"

The number one rule in Library Expert is that the user Must enter the component dimensions first and then apply all the preferences second.

If you change any component dimensions all Preferences will be set back to Default.

This is a feature, not a bug.
