If a .gsm parts is edited in v.14 does it become unusable in a previous version of AC?
Correct.
A library part edited in a particular version can only be read by that version or future versions.
So you either maintain a library for each version or do all your library part editing in the oldest version you want to use.
You will only need to edit library parts in the latest version if you want a particular new function - but make sure you keep the original library part to use in the older versions.
I script most of my parts in version 10 still but if there is a feture of a newer version I need to use I don't bother editing the part again in 13 or 14.
I just do the following.
if REQ("GDL_version")>=1.604 then !!VER13 and above
... script new commands here - ie Library Globals
endif
This way older versions will ignore the commands that it can't do.
