Hi,

 

as soon  as i click on Board, and the componentes appear, i start to place

them on the board area, but if i pick to equal componentes they don't  go

into the same grid, and the whole thing gets messy.

 

Any ideas on how to fix this?

    The default grid is 0.1" (100 mil) but the components are placed on a

    0.05" (50 mil) grid, so half of them are "off grid".

     

    Any ideas on how to fix this?

     

    Temporarily change the grid, move the ones that were off-grid, then

    change back. Or use the "snap-to-grid" (control click I think).
