Hello,

I was modifying a PCB layout of a LED Driver PCB on which the leds are also mounted.

The modification was just to add a few resistors and capacitors to provide a sync function.

However, somehow, the board outline has moved and i have no idea how this happened...i never moved the board outline when i was editing.......however, the LEDs are in a different coordinates, and no longer line up with the lens's.

...how can this happen, i never saw the board outline move, i am sure i never moved it accidentally.

..the LEDs are the same distance apart as before, but they have all moved to the right by 8 mils, and up by 10 mils.

How has this happened?

Do you think that maybe somebody has sabotaged my pcb layout when i went off to the canteen to get lunch?

...or is this a known bug in Altium?
 

Altium stores older versions of projects. Check project->local history-> show local history and find the last OK version.
