Why am I getting # Warning: Diagram structure inconsistencies encountered when opening "<path>\<filename>.bde". # Inconsistencies have been removed during loading and file has been marked as modified.

New features are added to the block diagram editor (BDE) at each release and this requires updates within the BDE tool architecture. When you open block diagram file from a previous release within the new release – the tool automatically checks for any inconsistencies in the file data.

If you see this message, this means the tool has cleaned up inconsistencies in file data and marked as modified. In this instance you will see “*” at the end of the file name in toolbar (see image).

Saving the file after seeing this message will save the modifications.

From the user’s perspective, no information, components, or blocks were changed within the BDE file. These changes are made purely in the background, and the message is for information only.
