On Layers F.Fab and B.Fab, I cannot select and edit or move the reference designators.
Is this a problem or a bug in 8.0.2? Or, perhaps something changed and I need to check some boxes somewhere to allow me to move the reference designators on Fab layers?
Any help is much appreciated!
Thank you!
Install the most recent v8 testing build or use v8.0.1. and wait for v8.0.3. (and skip 8.0.2).
This was a intended change (with the purpose to allow modification only on FP fields, not on simple footprint text). Due to the feedback this change was reverted (for now).
see discussions on this gitlab issue: Elements on F-FAB and B-FAB layers can no more be selected without selecting the whole footprint. (#17899) · Issues · KiCad / KiCad Source Code / kicad · GitLab
Great!
Thank you very much for the fast response!
