Hi, Good day! I have already done the PCB design and position the ref des silkscreen as well. However there are saome update on the parts . When I export physical the design. The refdes silkscreen returned to the original position and font size. Is there a way the ref des silkscreen position and font size to retain and not change even I updated the parts/components?

    I am afraid  no solution exist (to my knwoledge) if the footprint change.

    If footprint does not change, text should be leave at same location / size.

    If you only refrsh the footprint symbol, do not check "Reset symbol text location and size"
