Exact position & rotation

Connectors and mounting holes need exact coordinates from the mechanical drawing. Type them instead of dragging.

The selection chips beside a selected part: X 53.500, Y 60.750, 0 degrees, with Grid and Centers snapping on
X, Y and angle appear beside the selection as chips. Tap one and type. The snapping states (Grid, Centers) are shown alongside.
  1. Select the part

    Its X, Y and angle appear as chips beside the selection, in your units, mm or mils.

  2. Type the truth

    Tap a chip and enter the coordinate from the mechanical drawing. Geometry is stored in integer nanometres, so what you type is what you get, no float drift.

  3. Watch the snap labels

    While dragging, labels state what aligned to what, for example “Centre → U3” or “Left edge → board edge”. Use them to confirm a drag landed where you intended.

Limitation: numeric entry currently opens as a modal sheet rather than inline. It works; it’s tracked for improvement.
