Hi Guys! I've made some modifications on one part's PCB footprint layout in the PCB editor, but when i want to "Update PCB" from the schematic, it always change the modified PCB footprint back to the original one... The question is can i prevent this part from to be updated / exclude from 'Update PCB"?

The correct way to do this is to make a modified copy of the Footprint, assign that to the Package attribute of the relevant symbol(s) in the schematic and then do Update PCB. You could try the "Lock" attribute but I think that only applies to physical xy location.

You need to understand that In EasyEDA the schematic is the master document from which the PCB is originally created and then subsequently updated, not the other way round. This is explained in more detail in (2) in: [https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a](https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a)
