gEDA-user: Too many steps to save a modified gschem-symbol



http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:scg

3. Translate the symbol to the origin using Edit/Symbol Translate…

        Zoom in at least one step.
        Make sure the snap is ON (this is critical).
        Make sure grid snap size is set to 100 (this is critical).
        Select “Symbol Translate…” or the press equivalent hotkey.
        Enter 0 into the entry field and press OK.

Can we compress this in one single command "Save Symbol as..."?

I forgot to set gridspace back from 25 to 100, so "“Symbol Translate to
origin” made an offset of 25. I have noticed this when using the symbol
-- to late -- complete redraw was necessary.

Maybe some sanity ckecks would be fine when storing symbols:
- check if pins end on grid
- check if pins length is multiple of 100 (this is not checked now, but
seems to be not important)

Best regards

Stefan Salewski
