Any of you DXP users out there,
I was just wondering if Altium has ever fixed a common problem that drives us nuts in P99SE. Placing text within a library SCH symbol, will the text annotation properly maintain it's desired location/orientation within the symbol as it is rotated and placed in a schematic?
In P99SE as soon as you rotated a symbol any text annotation within that symbol goes screwy for orientation and location.
Brad,
This has been fixed. Text in a Sch Lib component will stay in the correct location as you rotate/flip the component. The text always seems to remain in the "correct" orientation - what I mean is that if you flip the component in the Y direction, the text remains the right way up (it is not flipped) - but it does get put in the correct location. If you rotate the symbol on the sch text, that was horizontal, will be put vertical when the component is rotated by +/-90 degrees. As you rotate through 180 degree, though, the text will flip over to remain right-readable, you don't get backwards text. It does sit in the correct location - or very close to it in.
Certainly the problem of the location shifting seems to be fixed. I no longer have to write out text using lines to make it look good when rotated.
Sorry for the late reply, Ian
