Component Rotations

In PCB view, rotating components using the hotkeys [ ] has some components transforming enormous jumps, sometimes into blocks of other components making it really challenging to work zoomed right in. Perhaps a matrix rotation error somewhere - my preference is for the rotation to occur at centre origin of bounding box.

Hi oldmanmaker
I want to make sure I understand what you are experiencing. You are trying to rotate a group of selected components using the
[
]
keys and instead of them rotating in place, they seem to jump around the PCB canvas.Is that an accurate re-wording of the behaviour you're seeing?

Hi collinsemasi - sorry if I worded it kinda confusingly. So if I select a single component in PCB view and I am zoomed right in, when I rotate it, it will often (maybe 85% of the time) transform to another location that can be difficult to find. If I am zoomed out, the rotations appear to work without issue for the most part. Ironically you mentioned grouped component rotations, which I have not had any issues with.
