I have some parts where the designator is "inside" the component on the PCB. I want to move them but when I try to select the designator I get the whole part instead.
The only way I've found to do it is:
- lock the component location
- select the designator
- move it outside the component outline
- unlock the component location
It works but it is annoyingly time consuming and I have lots of designators to move.
Is there an easier way to select only the designator?
