When drawing a circuit diagram, in order to make the wiring convenient, neat and clear, it is sometimes necessary to adjust the position of components on the diagram properly. Move the components to the appropriate position or rotate them in the desired direction. There are several ways to change the direction of components: Space: press the selected component every time and rotate it 90 degrees counterclockwise; X key is reversed left and right; Y key is upside down.

Operating steps of component rotation:
1. Click the component to be rotated with the mouse, and a cross cursor will appear above the component. At the same time, a virtual frame will be worn around the component and the target will change color. At this point, the component is selected;
2. Press the space bar while holding down the left mouse button to rotate the component to the required direction;
3. After the component orientation is adjusted in place, release the left mouse button to complete the operation.
