Re: Import Spice schematic
I did? import a LTspice schematic but not sure if it was v8.02 or not. It seemed to work ok except the connection dots did not show up in the schematic.? ?KiCad did know there was a connection.?

PCB reflection
I found that if I 'select all', the rotation triangles on the toolbar work correctly, but the mirror triangles do not reflect the tracks. I can't believe that is intentional.

Re: Newbie question!
Hi Eugene,
There are two ways to move symbols. Using the Move command (shortcut 'M'),
the symbol is moved without maintaining the wired connections. Using the
Drag command (shortcut 'D'), connected

Re: Newbie question!
Try highlighting the part, the 2 vertical lines, and a section of both horizontal lines, then hit G then everything should stay at right angles.

Re: Newbie question!
Use drag. I have it assigned to the tab key, I think the default is G.

Re: 'Snap to grid'

Re: 'Snap to grid'

I set the grid to 2.54 mm, but some parts are not snapped to the grid when first placed. If I try to move one, it then snaps, but It seems that I can place one 'off-grid' and not notice that. I do
