Placing or move by coordinates

TH Designs

Scenerio:

Part placed on board, decide to move it to a different location that I know the coordinates of. How??

Same thing when placing a part for the first time, how can I place by coordinates? We did this in training class, but I can not get it to work for the life of me.

Is there a spreadsheet or table where I can look up the part and enter the coordinates?

I have my first board done using 16.5 and I'm just going back over the areas I had issues with or need a better understanding of to make my time spent on the next board more efficient.

    Hello all. I've been using a 3-button mouse (without the scrool wheel) for about 12 years and I love it.  By depressing the the middle button and moving in a diagonal from lower right to upper left (or vice versa) I'm able to zoom in or out in Editor.  I don't really like the scroll wheel because it tends to roll when I simply want to depress it.  I realize a lot of this is personal preference but I thought I would share mine anyway.  The other thing I wanted to mention to Tom was that if by "switching ends" when routing he means the "toggle" function I assigned that to the "t" hot key and I find it works great. Thanks for allowing me to input.
