It seems there are Pin 1 dot issues on 2 pin polarized parts.  The pin 1 dot is on the pad.  I’ve noticed it with the following families:

 CHIP – Polarized

MELF

Molded Body

SODFL

 Is there a preference setting causing this?  I don’t see any control over the position in the preferences besides Legend Outline Placement Roundoff.  But I don’t want to change that value as it changes all the Silk lines as well as the pin 1 dot.  It is currently set to 0.01 which is the default I believe.

This problem is present in version 2016.10 and 2016.11  Can this be corrected with a setting change or is it a bug?  See image below of a demo polarized chip cap.

Regards,

Chris
