FAQ

  • How to put SMD components on the bottom side?
Use the "mirror" command (GUI button just below "move") to flip things to the other side. Or use the middle mouse button during a "move" operation. This is also more quicker can be done that just click middle mouse key
  • How to select the other part which are stack together (top, bottom)
right click and select different parts in either top or bottom.
  • How to delete Symbol, device or package in the device library design?
Open one of them, either symbol, device or package, which is the one you want to delete, select library-remove in the menu, and then type the name to delete it. it's not very convenient anyway.
