Copy group using the ctrl and alt keys has a bug

autodeskguest

Hi Support,

 

I'm using Eagle 5.1.0 for windows.  Normal grid .050 inches, alternate .025

inches. Copying a group, two crossed lines .150 inch long on the dimension

layer. Lines intersect on an alternate .025 inch grid point.

 

Hit CTRL and ALT then right click to set origin of the copied group to the

center point of the two lines, which were on .025 grid.  The cursor is

offset from the copied elements as though it was on the normal grid when the

copy was invoked, not the alternate grid.

 

So the selected center of the copied group does not follow the cursor

position.

 

If I set the normal grid to .025 I get the expected behavior that the center

of the lines follows the cursor.

    Fixed for version 5.1.3.
