Hola, On macOS Catalina, and Kicad 5.1.6.
The pcbnew documentation (section 3.14) refers to something called “footprint mode” which allows, among other things, a sort of auto-place feature. Its icon is a six-pin DIP IC. with the direction/movement cross on it. It is supposed to be on the top toolbar but isn’t. I mailed in an issue to gitlab about this. -a _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
