Cannot rotate components

Sorry for repeating on the rotation theme. I have read replies and know about "R" and "Space" and I have tried a myriad of things but I cannot get the component (a 2 pin connector in this case) to rotate. I have made my project public. On the PCB I have 2-pin screw connectors that I want to face out of the PC to allow terminating wires to come in on the side of the PC ... a 90 degree rotation. I am selecting the whole component and the outline and text rotates but the PCB pads stay fixed! Thanks ...

Ah! Suspect your version of Firefox is way too old. Update Firefox or install the latest version of Chrome or better still replace your unsupported Windows XP with Linux (suggest Linux Mint). :)

Hello. Thanks for your help. Yes it was Firefox too old! Sorry about forgetting the link. [https://easyeda.com/rowanw/thermocot](https://easyeda.com/rowanw/thermocot) This is my first attempt at PCB design. - steep learning curve!

Hi rowanw! I suggest using a bit thicker width for power traces. You just cant route all signals with 0.01 inch traces escpecially if you want to draw an amp out the regulators. And I assume you are going to install some sort of heat sinks to those regulators? Regards, Markus Virtanen HW / Electronics Designer

@markus_jidoka Thanks Marcus! Great tip much appreciated. I will get around to widening them. (When I learn how!)

@rowanw, Select the track you want to change then change tgexwidthbin the right hand panel. Clicking on a segment repeatedly cycles through segment / track / net.

@rowanw, Glad you managed to work out what "tgexwidthbin" meant from the mess I made of typing "the width in" :)
