    I've created the following python script to add certain libraries to a project. It seems to work fine, except for with certain libraries, placeholders don't get resolved. I've attached a screenshot of the library manager after the script runs. Is this an issue with my script, or something to do with the libraries themselves? The strange thing is that I have a project with two applications, and on each one different libraries resolve correctly.

    from __future__ import print_function

Project = projects.primary
AllObjects = Project.get_children(recursive=True)
for LibManager in AllObjects:
   if LibManager.is_libman:
        for repo in librarymanager.repositories:
            print(repo.name, "(", repo.root_folder, ", ", repo.editable, ")")
            for lib in librarymanager.get_all_libraries(repo):
                if lib.title == "Standard":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("Standard", lib) 
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                if lib.title == "CmpLog":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("CmpLog", lib) 
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")    
                if lib.title == "Visu Utils":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("VisuUtils", lib) 
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")        
                if lib.title == "PRO Standard":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Standard", lib) 
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                elif lib.title == "PRO Time":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Time", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                elif lib.title == "PRO Message":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Message", lib)
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                elif lib.title == "PRO Email":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Email", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")    
                elif lib.title == "PRO Trend":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Trend", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added") 
                elif lib.title == "PRO Visu":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Visu", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                elif lib.title == "PRO File":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_File", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                elif lib.title == "PRO Alarms":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Alarms", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")
                elif lib.title == "PRO Application":
                    LibManager.add_placeholder("PRO_Application", lib)     
                    print(lib.displayname, " added")

print("script finished")

    Hello,

    I have the same issue — some libraries aren’t resolved.
    When I load the libraries manually and delete them, reloading with the script works fine afterward.

    Have you found a solution since then?

    Many thanks in advance
