Re: copy paste pcb-layout respecting grid

PCB editor 4.0.0.5 example: all from source.dip (on grid) is copied and pasted to drain.dip where it gets off grid. Use case: Copy multiple designs in one panel pcb .

Re: pcb editor does not save occasionally

Alex, those are local files.
It happened with the same design. But the three cases occured at different stages of development/design.
What are your terms (non disclosure) when you get customer design files?

Re: route in mirror error

In pcb mirror mode start a route. Now the route will just shows up when you move the cursor over a pad - weird.

pcb editor does not save occasionally

Re: configurable colors for copper pours

corr. The more layers with pours, the more semi-transparent pours hide other objects in transparent view mode.

Re: configurable colors for copper pours

Objects, "clear all copper pours" and "update all copper pours" might help.
I'm not sure colors/transparency would be a big improvement.

component markings jump around

See picture 1.
Now move RefDes down. This let's jump the value field to the upper side of the component, see picture 2.
