OK, let's clarify some details.

When you say "attributes editor", do you mean the gschem attributes
editor dialog ('ee' shortcut), or do you mean using 'pcb' itself to
edit element attributes?

If you mean gschem's Attribute Editor for a symbol instance, did
you use the pcb Import Schematics feature, or the gsch2pcb tool to
forward-annotate (pull schematic changes into the pcb program)?

Can you reproduce the bug?

Regards,
Colin
