Handling Edge Cases

Occasionally, something may look wrong, especially for old library items. It's generally recommended to accept the library update. In this example, the cable has a Gauge propety, which doesn't make sense (only the wires should have a gauge property, which they do!). These odd cases are usually due to an out-of-date data model, and accepting the Library Value will resolve the issue. Reach out to us if there are diffs that don't make sense!
