PCB Layout Issues w/ Gen 7 File - SOLVED

Hi There,

I don't know if anyone else has tried this but, I'm wondering how I can move CONN4 in the Gen7 PCB layout? It seems to be fixed in place. To be honest I'm not too familiar w/ gEDA, but at this point, I can't even select the damn thing. Thanks!

Steve

I'll finalise my KiCad layout (need to add the expansion ports in) and post it up on github at some point in the near future - I don't know gEda, but do know KiCad - I think KiCad is a little easier to work with for final manipulation, but you have to jump through a few hoops for the module definition and tying up the circuit diagram to real devices (once you get the workflow, it's a bit easier)

I'd really prefer to just figure out what is wrong here. But thanks. I have a feeling it has something to do with fixing components in place, (I can do that as well), but I dont see an option to un-fix, at least not in the GUI.

Found the answer, there is a lock tool, click the footpring w/ the lock tool to toggle off/on. Cheers.
