Pattern library parameter to set whether the part alignment is shown for patterns
The part orientation (shown by an arrow) can be included in the pattern drawing.
An arrow pointing away from the centre of the part shows how the part is aligned on the board. The line runs to the 'top' of the part and shows how much the part is rotated. A vertical line indicates 'not rotated' so the part length is along the board length. A horizontal line indicates a rotated part. For a rotated part an exclamation mark is added to the descriptive text. This occurs regardless of the setting of this parameter.
