Some how the refdeses got locked in pcb and I can't select and move them. How do I unlock them? Also, I noticed in a tutorial that the F9 key is the rotator function, how can I get a list of all the shortcut keys for pcb? Thanks ___

Yeah, I'm not surprised it's ancient. And the reason it is is because I've never upgraded and don't know how. Are there directions on how to do this from cvs or git? I just noticed if I rotate a component it will allow me to move the refdes after. Does that give you a clue as to
