Footprint and its sketch disparity

[dieter.menne]

I have a footprint with a regular 4+5 spacing; fully custom-build, no external library.

When I do a "Create package from footprint, this is displayed as

Note that the pad spacing is irregular.

When I switch off snap, pins are ok. Note that the pads are off-grid because of the case-size being metric. I would consider this a bug nevertheless, because it should be possible to use snap even when the pads are off-grid.

@dieter.menne Sorry for very late response. Are you able to reproduce this in latest Fusion? If yes would you mind sharing the library containing that footprint? Thanks.

[dieter.menne]

At my first attempt with the new version, the problem remained. After I did a full cleanup/delete (sorry, don't remember the details) it worked ok. I am not totally sure if this would be reproducable, because I decided to never change a running system, take the money and run.

I just noted that there is version 2.0.8407 out today. My comment referred to the previous update.

@dieter.menne If you are able to reproduce please share the library containing the footprint. Thanks.

I did not have the courage to try again, but here is the component:

The bounding-box is on-grid, the pinholes are equidistant, but off-grid. I know that this combination was the problem, because other similar components with all pads on-grid worked ok, and switching off the grid during device creation was a workaround.

@dieter.menne Thanks for sharing the 3d model. If you are not able to reproduce this can we close this issue?

Please feel free to create a new one and attach the library with bad footprint.

Ok
