Y axis off
Y axis off
I noticed the reference point (the center cross) didn't look right and when I zoomed in I found the Y axis off. It turns out it knows it is off:
and 0.002mm isn't much but why is it there are all? PCB EditorRe: Y axis off

I just took two parts and placed them on the PCB, the first part couldn't get to 0,0 so I defined origin to be .002, .002 then it dropped it on the center, the second part wouldn't line up, it was .002, .002 off...
Re: Y axis off
By default in PCB Layout, while placing the component, it will be placed by Pads, no by Origin.
You can see and edit this from component context menu - Snap to Grid.

Are there any way to change the default to be placed by origin?Serg wrote:By default in PCB Layout, while placing the component, it will be placed by Pads, no by Origin.

Pads were practical 25 years ago when all component pads fit into a 0.1" grid.
Today with the SMD components with many different and smaller grids, the origin is more practical
