You need to use EasyEDA editor to create some projects before publishing
imported projects don't have footprints.

I've imported a project into the pro version and all the components have no footprint, ![eda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/5Or5uLUNxB2kh60Dx18LwpGNtYHbm5clnaRD3sj6.png) And, what is all the stuff at the bottom? I don't even know what item 5 is. If I click refresh it stays the same. What is it? And, why a huge discrepancy between LCSC and JLCPCB prices? BTW, It doesn't matter which component I choose, none have footprints. Undeterred, I started a new project and tried to call it power but it seems that path already exists even though it didn't. So, power1 it is. I started with a DC connector. Clicked place, found connectors, eventually found AC/DC power connectors (what is that order - appears to be random). There's 693 to choose from. I try to select both receptacles, if I'm quick I can select both but if I take my time, only one!!!! ![eda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/iyRrr2SqIxQOzwQAoumN8eYFhiQLuYM1ELzS37xH.png) Note, in the above the other options are greyed out. If I'm quick though, ![eda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/ooC4qrKLRRi4pOdqCuAcqTb6oq0jknG0Zsc8QxrR.png) And now I have two filters selected. Later, I wanted to place a diode, selected it, wanted it vertical so pressed "R" to rotate - no longer a keyboard short cut (why), no problem I'll use the toolbar at the top. Greyed out, ![eda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/zTjesCnYE2UHJomASWp6smkr8eZIj8Jr84djAo2C.png) Everything I try to do I'm fighting this thing all the way.

If you place an item then the rotate tools become available. And I found that the "R" shortcut has been replaced with "space" (no idea why). If you go to the menu item "Layout" then the space bar no longer works. In fact, any menu item. If whilst trying to place an item you inadvertently press "R" then a menu pops up which won't go away and stops space working. If you press "Escape" to get rid of the menu then it gets rid of the item too. And, please make "Enter" work to select the default option. I like using the keyboard but have to constantly go to my mouse to click a button to get the action I want, I.E. the new project dialog, ![eda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/o1V93e51IXCL4PkGjrpzbiCwj6xRxPNZ6i7NRCWT.png) Why doesn't "Enter" activate the "Save" button? It does on every other software I can think of.

I have tried to replace the components involved so they have a footprint but when it said the sheet that the schematic was on didn't have a footprint, I gave up.

OK, last gripe (promise). I select an LED, it finds 19636 so I need to filter the results, ![LED1.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/LJq7jJLqKbp2tUAvj7X6Q8V7YHXB2rkzrbWxbBtT.png) I select 0805 footprint and hit "Apply Filters" and I get the same number!!!!!!!! ![LED2.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/3FjE1Ft7iZFuYy34kTOGLPYA2KNcbmKPV32jjfMk.png) It's correct because it's applying OR to the filters so if it contains LED OR 0805 then it matches resulting in a completely useless filter. Change it to AND and it will work much better.

Note, (not gripe as promised) The filter works as expected if LED is selected from the left hand box, ![eda.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/qLzgqXlmujkhzVWU79NxYUMHpHa1Esnj8srErSVQ.png)

Looks like everyone abandoned this forum. Yup, looks like Pro is a complete failure.

@pommie  You are correct. This forum sucks hard...I have a simple question out there about importing footprints and symbols and no info yet :-( I have the same experience as you with the package, full of quirks, but in the end it "does the business" cheaply!
