Footprint for RGB led flips common and green pin #3

There is no other explanation as far as I can tell.. Or you mounted the wrong LED :grin:

Since the common pin is +3.3V, gpios should be low in order to turn on a color.

Green pin must be high in order to get red or blue to light up. This makes it seem to me like the green pin is actually the common. Green color can't be turned on at all.

LED seems to have been flipped on my board. But that doesn't explain why red and blue have the correct colors. If the LED was flipped, wouldn't the colors also be flipped? Confused.
