Never used "pcb View - Align Grid". What may be the intended function? My guess: If you realign grid, all other components will become off grid. What I did: Align the new component to the grid, by grabbing its center or a single pin. For aligning a single pin it may be necessary/helpful activating "Settings/Orthogonal Moves". _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
