| - If there are triangles that look like the below image in your schematic, these are not **NOT** gates (there is no inversion bubble on the tip of the triangle). These are called **buffers**, notice that they are labeled with **OBUF** underneath them. A buffer essentially passes its input to its output. You can ignore them for this class, Vivado generates them. \\ {{ :tutorials:view_schematic:buffer_ignore.png?nolink |}} | - If there are triangles that look like the below image in your schematic, these are not **NOT** gates (there is no inversion bubble on the tip of the triangle).

| A bar near the top of the Vivado window may also appear stating that the elaborated design is out-of-date. Clicking **Reload** on this bar will also successfully refresh the schematic. | A bar near the top of the Vivado window may also appear stating that the elaborated design is out-of-date.
