Sometimes autoplacement does not place components when following the process guide #2

Jbsco commented 11 months ago

Some students reported not being able to autoplace components in the PCB editor after moving from the schematic. Need to test and verify, suspect permissions issues or perhaps project configuration. Address this in the process readme.

Jbsco commented 11 months ago

This likely occurs because the PCB Editor needs to update from the Schematic Editor (hotkey "F8"). image This should run a checker and will report any warnings or errors as well as provide the option to replace existing footprints.

Addressed by #5, closing.
