I see the need for something akin to a preferred default positioning, where
when a symbol is rotated there is a place where your prefer your attributes to
be placed.
Have geschem do the auto place template not part of the symbols at all

There used to be a bug in older versions of pcb where you had to move the
component before you could manipulate the refdes. This also was helped by a
save and reopen of the pcb file.

Hello,
Is there a functionality in PCB to rotate a component in 45 degree
instead of 90 degree which is available at present?
Thanks and Best Regards

Anthony,
I look forward to your hard work, it is very impressive, and reminds
me of the layouts from years ago, where they were taped out and
pretty. None of this manhattan grid.
I know that Adding via's are non trivial for an auto router, with
your topological auto router, will it use a via

Aren't the pins still in the same orientation they would be with the
standard footprint? Since your DIP packages are mounted in the

I think the point John wants to make is that if you only program for a GUI,
then you loose the scriptability. I have see this many times in software.
Where is you write the GUI first, the scripting is an afterthought. Where as
