probably argument for making a new symbol if this case is encountered.. Say I have my pinname text inside the symbol, and I over-ride that attribute in the schematic, to a longer text string. I "might" want to move that text in the symbol. *I say might*. It could be handled in the symbol by ensuring the text is anchored at the correct left, middle, right etc. I'm all for saying you can't re-locate an existing attribute. I wounder if there is any call for _removing_ an attribute which is in the underlying symbol? (Removing as distinct from over-riding with "")
Yes, I can see how "removing" or "forgetting" about an attrib in the .sym file and replacing it with an attrib in the placed symbol section of a schematic would be beneficial. It would give you position flexibility. You would then be able to drag it around.
