Am I missing something?

[Guest]

Okay, I'm in component designer, importing an INF file for my SBC's video.
It imports successfully. I save the SLD file and then import it using the
Component Database Manager. Everything reports success. Fine. Next, I open
up Target Designer and add my newly created and imported component to a new
project. KABOOM! "Can not find the resource blah blah blah in the following
search path yadda yadda yadda." What the heck? Do I have to copy these
files by hand into a repository? Is there a flag somewhere I have to raise
so that Component Designer will take care of this for me? What should I do?

Hi William,

Your repository settings are bad in your component for some reason.
Also files structure in repository must be flat, that mean all files must be in same folder.

Yes, there is but in Component Designer Manager. When you import a component there is a check-box to copy the component repository
files.

What should I do?
