There was a skill program on sourcelink many years ago that shows errors
for misplacement of silk features.

Hey Andy,

That's been on my wish list for a while.

I usually get into Show Element with Symbols turned on and pass over the silk 
to see if the correct symbol lights up.

You can also move each text to see the "rats", and then oops out of it.

Subject: [PCB_FORUM] Silk Screen REF DES with correct component

Hi All,

For those not using AUTO_SILK, but use and manipulate SS ref des text 
manually.......  Is there a way to verify that the SS REF DES is with its 
correct component? I know that sometimes when moving/rotating and adding leader 
lines, there might be pilot error in that the REF DES might be switched with an 
adjacent component.

  Thanks,

Andy
