Hi Brad. Do you have your component comments hidden? Sometimes they get lost
in space. Try double-clicking on any component, under the 'comment' tab
change the autoposition field to 'center', then do a global change for all
primitives. Of course, this is something you don't want to do if you already
have visible placed comments on the pcb, they will be re-arranged also.

Hi guys,
I have a problem which is driving me nuts. I have a PCB which I just
finished placing, there is something outside of the visible area of the
components and PCB outline. Using Zoom All I get a window approx. twice the
size expected. I cannot find anything outside of the expected area of the
PCB. Trying to determine what is out there, I used the select outside area
and selected my PCB outline. The selection selects approx. 12 varied
components within my PCB outline. Now I know that there is something with
regards to these components which is outside the PCB area. What is it? What
can it possibly be? How do I find it?
