Two libraries named the same (cloud copy and PC file) make Fusion ask "Select Library" on every ADD; schematic run then exceeds its 60 s budget

Glenn Jones · 7d ago ·closed by Colby Knox

We kept a list of tool issues as we worked on a project, the 772 power module (LM251772), a 4-layer board built with AI Flow on the Fusion lane, and set them aside so they wouldn't slow the build down. Now that the project is finished, we're filing them together. Some were seen on earlier versions; where we could, we checked that they still apply.

Versions: fusion-bridge 1.13.4x.

What happens: our project library existed both as a PC file (TI772_Module.lbr) and as its cloud copy with the same name. Fusion kept both in its in-use list (restarting didn't clear it), and every ADD opened a "Select Library" dialog. The bridge's schematic run blocked on those dialogs and ran past its 60 s budget.

Workaround: rename the PC file (<Name>_local.lbr).

Expected: the bridge detects two in-use libraries with the same name before an ADD batch and says so (or answers the dialog with the library the call named), instead of timing out.

No design files attached; happy to describe more on request.

Thanks, Glenn. This is fixed: the fix went public in 1.13.67, and the current public build is 1.13.72.

When Fusion's Select Library picker comes up during a part placement or fusion_schematic_run, the bridge closes it and answers library_name_in_use in about 3 seconds, naming both libraries in librariesInUse. Long lists also no longer run into the 60-second limit.

We couldn't make the bridge pick the library for you: choosing a row and clicking OK closes the picker, but the part still doesn't land.

To clear a clash, do what you did and rename the file, or remove the other file and restart Fusion. A restart alone doesn't clear it, as you found.

We tested this with two PC files. We didn't test your exact case of a cloud copy and a PC file, though 1.13.72 should list a cloud copy's row too. If that case misbehaves, please reopen this.
