Interesting way of ascribing Intelligent Design to Sheer Oversight ... ...
Actully, a feature. Here is why this happens, I think: Protel assumes, when you are placing parts, that you will want the relative locations of reference designators etc. to be as you used for the last part placed. So it puts, if I am correct, the reference designator there. When the previous part was different from the one you now want to place, this can be a very unuseful position. But Protel, at the same time, has realized that if you rotate the part from the previous position, you will not want the same reference designator position, so it restores the designator text to the default position. Thus if you want default, simply rotate the part. If you want what you used before, leave it unrotated. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/proteledaforum@techservinc.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
