Moving Parts in pieces?

TooBorg

 Hi @all!

I got a problem with a new board - and i can not find the solution: Usually if i use the "move" command on a part, it moves completely. Now i got a brd-file from someone else and if i put the parts in there, i can move them "in pieces", so if  pick the outline (assembly_top), just the outline is moved. I guess this is just a simple thing, but at the moment, i can't find it :(

 

Ok, got it. The "Find" options... damn! that was stupid! :) 

  •  You could always add the LOCKED property to the filename.dra which would stop you moving the seperate pieces in the first place. To do this open the filename.dra. Go to Edit - Properties, then in the Find Filter change the Find by Name dropdown to Drawing, then in the List locate and select the Locked property, Click Apply and the property is added. Save the filename.dra file.
