Update components and nets Layout XL

[migotigo]

Does anyone know how to stop layout XL from rearranging instances when
you do an update to the components and nets. I have tried turning off
everything under generate but it still rearranges most of the instances
on the screen.
Hopefully there is a button I have failed to click.

Thanks

Mike

It shouldn't be rearranging anything. It will add the things that are missing,
but existing stuff should stay where it is.

It seems that any instance that is not completely enclosed by the

prBound layer gets rearranged! Strange, they must be a setting to stop
it from doing that?
