It is now possible to relocate a group of individually selected components (bulleted with Ctrl key + click). This option has also been implemented in Layout Editor.

In previous versions, relocated components could be rotated only around entry #1. Now they are rotated around selected entry or (if element of the outline has been clicked for selection) around component’s centre. In the later case, component’s centre is used as the handle for relocation. This option has also been implemented in Layout Editor.

There is a new option for merging nets after block copy. Previously, merging of net with matching names could be executed either for Power/Gnd type nets only or for all nets. Now, the third option allows for individual selection of nets to be merged. This option is also available in Layout Editor

Connecting components in the diagram can be speed up by using new option “Connect by overlapping”. This option applies to relocated components. Connection is made simply by overlapping pins that should be connected. See example below:

Let us assume that inputs ‘S’ and ‘D’ of relocated right hand component have to be connected to outputs ‘f’ and ‘g’ of the left hand component. Clicking left mouse button when right hand component has been relocated to a position where the pins to be connected overlap, results in creation of two new connections:

In the next stage, when the relocated component is placed at its final location, the connecting wires will be automatically routed:

Similar effect can be achieved by overlapping wire segment with component pin selected as relocation handle:
