Placement Edit Persistent Snap

mferraraphl24

Up until recently I've been able to select a symbol for placement edit and OrCAD would automatically snap to the symbol origin for the point to move. Now, however, lately I've noticed that when I perform the same task wherever I click within the symbol is where the symbol is moved from. It no longer snaps to the symbol origin, which for me is the symbol center. I've tried using Persistent Snap and click on Snap to Symbol Origin, but I get the following error in the command window Could not satisfy the snap condition using 'Symbol Origin' mode. 

Could someone help me discern why this has changed and is there a way to change it back so that I can move a symbol based on the symbol's origin? Thank you.

    When you enter into the "Move" command. Make sure to check to see if the move option is set to -point /Sym Origin. That will do it for you. Cheers
