Unbinding Macros in Your Design

When you unbind a macro, you disassociate the macro's components and nets from the macro. The macro name is deleted from your design's database. After unbinding, all of the components and nets are treated as separate components and nets. Also, component names and net names are changed, replacing the forward slash (/) that indicates the macro's library file with an underscore (_).

To unbind a macro, follow these steps.

1. Display a list of macro names in the List window.
   
   
2. Select the macros to unbind.
   
   
3. Select Edit Unbind Macro.
   
   For each of the selected macros, the included components and nets no longer are associated with the macro, and the macro name disappears from the List window.
