If the conversion script was initially generated by the software as a result of converting existing schematic
symbol styles to blocks, you need to modify the script to reflect the customizations that you want before
you use the same script to convert the blocks to new styles.
If you created the conversion script, you might want to modify the script to change one or more settings
before repeating the conversion process. Although you can also change the settings using the Style Manager,
the changes are overwritten if you subsequently repeat the conversion process.
You modify a symbol conversion script using the Edit Symbol Script dialog.
In the dialog, the displayed settings change depending on whether you select a schematic symbol style, a
view, or a connector in the table. For example, in the following images, notice how the heading names differ
depending on the selected object.
Selected style
Selected view
Selected connector
