So am I missing something obvious or does Altium really lack a basic rotate tool ? EDIT: Thank you for the responses, they have been very useful. In eagle you just select, type "rotate r45" in the command console and apply to group. I had to delete the original and also the 1st copy of the circular pattern in order to leave the 45 degree version. ![]() The only way I found to do it was to copy, paste special, circular array, 45 degrees, twice. I searched for it in their wiki-based documentation but found nothing I could use. With that in mind I started looking for the "rotate" tool in Altium. So, suppose you draw them first at right angles and at the end just rotate everything 45 degrees. ![]() But it is easier to draw them at right angles because it is easier to use the given measurements that way. Suppose you want to draw a footprint for a part like: The navigation switch's pads are drawn in the datasheet rotated 45 degrees, so that the switch directions are natural (up, down, etc).
