Roam by grid unit, not screen/other pixel

Vikas Dabas

When i look into env file, i learned that arrow key are used to roam around board based on pixel(most probably screen)

Can you help me to roam around based on grid unit.

Some times we need to move components on grid, i need to roam using arrow keys but on grid. it is random to roam based on pixel.

  • Have no active command and then select the part (so it highlights) then use the SHIFT+Arrow Keys to move the part based on grid. Remember the Active class / subclass affect which grid you are on. If it's Etch/TOP then it uses the Etch grid, if it's Package Geometry / Some subclass then it uses the Non-Etch Grid.
