I was using the manual interactive placement tool: Align Left. I had manually aligned a particular jack and then set its properties to "locked" so it wouldn't move. I then wanted to place another jack in the same vertical alignment, so I selected both of them and choose "Align Left" and it MOVED MY LOCKED COMPONENT.
I thought a while back, you could select a group of parts and choose align whatever, then you could click on the one you want to use for a reference. When did that disappear? Ahh. I see what they did. They now choose the "most extreme" location of any of the selected parts and call that the reference. I was trying to "align left" and since my locked component was more to the right then the "other" component, it moved my locked component towards the left. I call this a minor bug since it moved a locked device without the expected "Selection contains locked primatives" dialog.
