Schematic viewer with GHDL/Yosys cannot find work lib

[atticlabsdesign]

I am using VHDL and when I try and use the schematic viewer it works fine with entities in their own file but when i create an instance of a entity in another file GHDL fails to find the work lib. This is only a problem for me as it relates to the yosys schematic viewer, I can successfully run test benches with GHDL no problem. I have tried specifying the work directory with an absolute path in the schematic viewer settings (in the arguments passed to GHDL box) and it still fails.

yosys error (without any settings being messed with below)

I realize that the config file shows I passed an absolute path to the regular test bench GHDL command, don't worry I realized this was wrong and really did try it in the schematic viewer version and it didnt work, i just forgot to remove that before copying the files

Make sure that you aren't using a file with whitespaces in the path. And that your code is synthesizable. For example your testbench will fail because the code is'nt synthesizable.
