I have created a number of component footprints for my pcb designs (Protel 99SE). When placing these components the Designator and Part Type fields are always a long way off from the component unlike the footprints that were supplied with Protel. What do I need to do to the footprint to force these fields to start initially next to the footprint?
I know that, once applied, I can reposition using the `position field' (which by the way already defaults to Centre-Above and Centre-Below) but this has to be done with EVERY homemade footprint I have created.
