Go into the move command and then select the part. Use the Spacebar - The easiest way to rotate a part is to do this while it is flying on your mouse during placement. In the PCB layout, parts can be rotated in either 90 degree increments, or you can set an arbitrary rotation angle. Part rotation in schematics is limited to 90 degree increments. Rotating a Part in the Schematic and PCB Layout The options for rotation in each document are also different, as outlined below. Note that a rotation in the schematic does not also rotate the component in the PCB layout, and vice versa. Parts can be rotated in both the schematic and the PCB layout. How Do I Rotate a Part in Altium Designer? Without further delay, let's get started, and make sure you watch the video later in this article if you want further overview of the place and move functions in Altium Designer. After I show these points, I'll also outline some of the other basic functions in the schematics for placing and moving components as you work through a design. These functions can be accessed in multiple places: from the main menu at the top of the application window, using a hotkey, or using the Properties panel on the right side of the screen. The functions in the schematic are slightly different than in the PCB layout, so follow along if you are a new user and want to learn these basic functions. In this article, we'll give a brief overview of how to flip or mirror components in Altium Designer, as well as how to rotate components in different design documents.
