I also noticed a similar posting where the advice was "check that your pins are connection point out and not connection point in". I'm guessing this is the problem and it must relate to the FPGA header symbols that I have created? What is meant by "connection point out" (or "in"). Is this specifying inputs and outputs or am I completely off-track?

Here's what my header symbol looks like in the symbol editor, if it helps. 

I guess this is my problem? 

So... is there any way of multiple selecting the pins to move all of the dots outside of the rectangle?

At the risk of seeming rude or sarcastic, it really will help you and save a lot of time and stress if you read and follow the instructions in: [https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a](https://easyeda.com/forum/topic/How-to-ask-for-help-and-get-an-answer-71b17a40d15442349eaecbfae083e46a)<br> <br> from where you will read about: [https://docs.easyeda.com/en/Introduction/Basic-Skill/index.html#Select-more-shapes](https://docs.easyeda.com/en/Introduction/Basic-Skill/index.html#Select-more-shapes)

No offence taken. I'm just trying to rush a hobby board together in the little time that I have available. Thanks for the assist.

..and I still don't believe that selecting multiple pins is an option anyway. If I could mirror/flip a multiple selection, that would be useful. I ended up doing them all manually lastnight. Double rotation (180 degrees) made all my pins become in the wrong order.

@sparkynz74, You need to left-click-drag around the pin and the whole of the pin name: 

Thanks - knew that. Didn't see the mirror ("Flip Horizontal") icon at 12:30am this morning. We're all good. :-)

@sparkynz74, Shortcut (Hot) keys: X = flip in the direction of the X axis; Y = flip in the direction of the Y axis.
