How can I move the value of a footprint relative to it? If the footprint is selected, the value shows, but if I try to move it, I move the whole footprint - if the footprint is not selected, the value is hidden (only the ref designators show).
The above also happens if I create extra text items - if I use %R for the text, I can move it, if I use %V, it disappers when the footprint isn’t selected, and thus it can’t be moved.
First select the layer on which the “value” is shown.
That should put that layer on the top of the stack of layers and allow you to select only the text to move it.
I can add custom text items no problem, but as soon as it has the text “%V” in it (so it shows the symbol/footprint value), or it is the “Value” row itself, it is hidden when the footprint is unselected.
