I have added \"Pcb Move Problem (Detail).zip\" to show the\nsteps.\n\nEssentially the issue is this:\n1.1) User wants to move a block --> select block\n1.2) User wants to postion some \"datum point\" within the selected block (\"Datum point #1\") at some \"distant\" datum point\n(\"Datum point #2\").\n   \"KiCad Src-Dest-01.jpg\"\n       Source is rectangular arae at top left, destiantion is \"target\" X-hairs at lower right.\n   \"KiCad Source Detail (1-pin).jpg\"\n       Datum point #1: This is within the Source Block\n   \"KiCad Destination (Detail).jpg\"\n       Datum point #2: This is the destination. The aim is to align (Datum point #1,Datum point #2)\n    \"KiCad Src-Dest-BLOCK SELECT.jpg\"\n       Here we select the Souce Block.\n2.1) Next, we move the Source Block (rectangular selection). The automatic panning means we can get close to our aim.\n     \"KiCad PLACE (No Zoom).jpg\"\n2.2) It's not accurate enough...\n        \"KiCad PLACED (Full Zoom) - BUT BLOCK IS NOT SLECTED ANY MORE.jpg\"\n           Note this image was captured when the source block was no longer selected.\n    ------>This is important<------\n           I can not zoom like this when the block is still selected.\n2.3) Therefore, we zoom in\n        \"KiCad PLACE (About to Zoom).jpg\"\n        \"KiCad PLACE (Partly Zoomed).jpg\"\n2.4) A little more zoom? No! Here is the problem\n        \"KiCad PLACE (More Zoom - THE PROBLEM !).jpg\"\n        \"KiCad PLACE (More Zoom - cannot go more right!)).jpg\"\n    ------>I cannot align (Datum point #1,Datum point #2)<-------\n           If I try to more more to the right (Source--...-->) the whole screen jumps because of the auto-pan\n2.5) OK - Turn Auto-Pan Off - may that is the answer ?...\n        \"KiCad PLACE cannot go more right (Auto-pan OFF)).jpg\"\n           No, the screen no longer jumps (OK), but I am no better off\n    ------>I *still* cannot align (Datum point #1,Datum point #2)<-------"}}
