Locking wires onto nodes
« on: October 12, 2012, 09:11:37 am »
I don't know how i did it...but now on my altium designer...when i wire up two component pins....then move the component...the wire doesn't stay attached to the component pins :( I do not know which altium option/setting/preference that adjusts this. I want to move the component, and have the wires "tack on" to it and move with it.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

SOLVED:. Need to check "Always drag" in the Schematic Editor Preferences.

Yuck ! . that is a very annoying thing. half the tie the wires become spaghetti.
leave that option off by default and use the M-D command ( move - drag ) if you need this
