[SOLVED] New to Kicad - Question about Resistor Value location

[mgyger]

It’s “normal” but there is also an open issue for it:

Eeschema: non-autoplaced fields feature (#5767) · Issues · KiCad / KiCad...

Update: Keyword do_not_autoplace has been added to 6.99. Thanks!

A few tweaks to symbol fields: You can now choose to display a field’s name in addition to its value on the schematic sheet You can now disallow autoplacement for particular fields, which can be useful when you want to have certain fields always show up in a certain place relative to the symbol graphics, but others to be autoplaced.
