  • Rotate rotates the orientation of the selected node(s) to the orientation chosen from the sub-menu. The default direction is 0 degrees, which corresponds to North to South. 
  • Grid Settings... opens the grid settings dialog (Figure below). Here you can choose to:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
    • Toggle display of the grid using Display Grid. The default state is off but the setting is saved with your project. This is synonymous to the Display Grid button in the Schematic Editor toolbar (Figure 5). Toggle whether nodes will snap to the grid when moved within Schematic Editor using Snap to Grid. Turning this setting on does not affect the alignment of existing nodes. Alignment with the grid is only enforced when you drag a node. Figure 3 compares the appearance of the Schematic Editor with the Snap to Grid control turned off (left) versus on (Grid Size is 50 pixels in centre and 100 pixels on right).  The default state is off but the setting is saved with your project. This is synonymous to the Snap to Grid button in the Schematic Editor toolbar (Figure 5). 
    • Change the frequency of grid lines using Set Grid Size. The default is 10 pixels but the setting is saved with your project. Figure 4 shows the appearance of the Schematic Editor with a grid size setting of 10 pixels (left), 50 pixels (centre) and 100 pixels (right). This is synonymous to entering the grid size in the Schematic Editor toolbar (Figure 5).
