How to set Footprint rotate angle, pcbnew

[cdeveza]

Instruction I found says to go to Preference-General settings, but my latest version of KiCad does not even have General Settings? Can anybody please help me on how to set rotate angle everytime you hit ‘r’ or shift-r?

Thanks in advance,
Alex

For v5
Preferences ->Pcbnew->Rotation angle

First question probably inspired from reading:

Rotate footprint 45 degree instead of 90 and 180

Also: Pcbnew / preferences / General Settings / Options / Rotation Angle: … This adjust the stepsize for pressing “r” (CCW) or [Shift +R] (CW).

As Pedro already posted, Full path for KiCad V5.1.6 is now in:
Pcbnew / Preferences / Preferences / Pcbnew / Editing Options / Rotation Angle

If you still can’t find it, then at least post the full KiCad version from:
Pcbnew / Help / About KiCad / {Tab:} Information / Copy Version Info and paste the text here.

Or better:
Just update to the latest stable release of KiCad, which is currently V5.1.6. It’s free
