This happens every time you do an update without the 'update PCB' function, e.g. when you update the switch footprint and say 'update PCB' from the library editor. The way around it is to temporarily(!) unlock the primitives of the offending component, then do an 'update primitives' with the Netlist Manager. Don't forget to re-lock the primitives, or the component might get screwed up later on..... BTW: TSSOP footpints tend to be a litte bit smaller than the TSOP, they are most defenitely NOT the same. Made that mistake once and got a huge protest (and cost increase) from the board stuffer: they had to manually check and re-position all the offending IC's after prooduction.
