When placing symbols in your schematic, the schematic editor
uses the symbol’s origin and bounding box as points of
reference for different editing activities.
You will need to adjust these when you change your symbol in
the symbol editor. The symbol editor helps you position the
origin, bounding box, and also pins by using an adjustable snap
grid.
