Can't move pin number ?????

ismyself

Greetings,

I am making a foot print of 289 pin chip.  After instantiating the array of pins it seems the pin number can only be moved ONCE!   After changing the text and placing the pin number inside the circular pin, it doesn't allow me to

move it again.  When I try to just select the pin number text it selects the whole pin.  

Thanks for any suggestion. 

Cheng

    Be in General Edit app mode
    Enable the Find filter tab to only text
    Set a grid which will allow you to move the text where you need it
    Select the text, either individually or by window...
    RMB > Move
    If you like you can use the right mouse button 'snap to' functionality.

    I got away by not putting the pin number into the circle but right corner.
