Hi Mark, How about extract a place_txt.txt file globally change the footprint name in that file delete all relays, and use a "plctxt -r" command to read the file back into the board. The caveat is that the two relay origins are in the same spot, but you would encounter that with a 1 by 1 replace as well.

The only way I can find to do it is thru delete / manual place or Move / select alt sym the place back down. Very very time consuming concidering this can not be done in "stretch mode". All my parts are on a 1 mil grid. HELP!
