      I had to move a stud to delete some cruft. Now I can't move it back. The motion of the stud (done as a component to keep it from welding onto everything else) is about 10 times as much as the motion of the move tool cursor. E.g.
      I grab the upper left corner of the stud, and attempt to move it 1/8" the stud moves about 2". I've tried zooming in. The amount of motion is independent of zoom.(All measurements are relative to the size of the stud -- e.g. estimates based on fraction of 1.5 x 3.5 inch dimension.

        This is just a shot in the dark. Select the component, right click, select Unglue in the flyout menu. Then try your operation again.

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

            What they said. Next time, don't move the component. Just hide it temporarily (right click on it and choose Hide.) Unhide from the Edit menu after doing your clean up.

              Also the word 'spastic' is offensive to many people - so I suggest that you also watch your language - it is possible to communicate problems without offense - save those up for a really bad day [dick-wad!] 😡
              Your problem is readily fixable, and we can help you - so there's no need for excess... 😒

                I clicked this thread as I knew someone would comment on the thread title!
                In my opinion it depends where you're from...Different communities use different words, if the word has lost all offensive meaning amongst those people I think it's fine. However using such slang online probably isn't a good idea!
