Hello,
At work, very often I'm using Eagle to draw electrical schematics of different setups. I like it more than Microsoft Visio because it is much simpler to do it. I don't need to design PCBs for these schematics since these schematics includes symbols for Power Supplies, Waveform Generators, Oscilloscopes etc. The only thing I care is to draw a nice schematic.
In my example I have an oscilloscope probe which I would like to place it somewhere in my setup at an angle smaller than 90 degrees. In Board Editor, if I want to do this with an object it is very easy: I just press alt while rotating and depending on alternative grid setup, I can place my package at any angle I want. Or I can type the angle directly in the Properties dialog. But this is not possible in the Schematic Editor 
.
I can place my probes at right angles but I don't like it. Maybe I will need to rotate something else later. What to do? Create a new rotated symbol every time ? Not a very good idea because also in the Symbol Editor you have only fixed angles and fixed length for pins. So not so much freedom.
Try to create a symbol like this and place pins instead of lines. You can't rotate the pins at finer angles and you can't customize their lengths. The workaround is to use 0 length pins and draw lines. But...why to draw lines instead of having more freedom when you customize your pins?
Oh, now I just remembered another issue, this time in the Board Editor: place more object in the design and try to do a fine group rotation :). Did you manged to rotate the group by pressing ALT key? I think you didn't but if you know a very easy way to do it, please share it :). If not, I maybe Eagle programmers will implement it in the futures updates.
I hope this kind of small things will fixed in the following updates :).
BR,
Daniel
