Exact symbol rotation

Grubi
Grubi over 10 years ago

If I rotate previosly symbol/component by mouse (or somebody left before me on 359.45deg),

what is the easiest solution to move/rotate the symbol to 0 or 360deg exact? Until now

fastest for me is to Unplace the component and place it again. Move/rotate/spin with absolute/incremental change

is not working for me, or I am missing something... again. It is same question if I want to rotate component from 0.5deg to 50 deg, etc.

How simple can be when one have the value in Show element, to change/correct it directly there?

Thanks!

    In the rotate command, select Type = Absolute, Angle = whatever angle you want it at.  If you want everything set to 0 or 360, use 360 (0 will give you no snap).  If you want it at 50 degrees, set it to 50.
