Thanks Jean!

Both ways worked!
1. Move with "stretch Etch" deselected AND Place Manual click already placed comp.


Do you know why pop alt symbol will not work?
I was hoping to hit the F-key then click on the component.

Much appreciated,
Mark

also do the RMB>alt_symbol that way too.

Good morning,
I would like to select an alt symbol for a component.
I know I can RMB alt sym while manually placing a part, but would like to select when moving a comp.
1. Any way to activate this "greyed out" pull down?
I also tried mapping a hot ket to "POP ALT SYMBOL" which is a valid keyboard command, but does not work.
Either during move or manual place.


Any ideas?
I now have to delete all the comps, then RMB while placing.

Thanks,
Mark
